Adding further versatility and sophistication, the property also features a self-contained, legal two-bedroom, one-bathroom loft apartment with soaring cathedral ceilings, its own private deck, and a warm, inviting character all its own, ideal for guests, in-laws, or additional income. From its impeccably preserved craftsmanship to its undeniable presence within the community, this residence is a true one-of-a-kind offering, a legacy home in every sense.
