Charming home nestled under towering oaks, featuring recent upgrades of new kitchen cabinets, appliances, electrical and plumbing. Fireplace, original beam ceilings and oak floors have been refinished and add to the unique character of this vintage home. Excellent opportunity for someone looking for that winter retreat or just downsizing.
