Turn-of-the-last-century home endowed with the character and charm only the passage of time can impart--yet is in excellent condition. The home was built in 1911 by the Fagg family and was purchased from an heir by the present owner in 2004. Since then, the home has been wrapped in composition overlapping siding, received a new composition shingle roof, most of the original pine flooring has been refinished, custom-made blinds for the windows installed, and it has been painted through-out. The 1788 sq. ft. of living space (according to owner) is divided into a living room, dining room, kitchen, utility room with washer/dryer hook-ups, office, 3 bedrooms and 1 and bathrooms. There is a fireplace in the living room and a second fireplace in the master bedroom. Ten foot ceilings and large windows add space and light; central heat and a/c and ceiling fans increase the comfort factor. ...
