Property Description
Exceptional and distinctive – this is for all you “vintage home” lovers! From the trim to the doors, windows and niches, this home tells a story of an era when craftsmanship was an art form. Located on a spacious corner double lot, a short stroll from historic Main Street, this Craftsman gem—affectionately named Lorelei—embodies small-town charm. With its welcoming atmosphere, walkable downtown, and close-knit community, Gilmore Girls fans might find themselves wondering if they've stumbled into Stars Hollow. Enjoy local coffee, vintage shops, live music, yoga and dance studios, plus a newly expanded park, playground, and walking trail—all just steps from the show-stopping front porch. Inside is bright and airy, with natural light flowing into every room. The home feels even more spacious thanks to 11-foot ceilings and expansive windows that illuminate its stunning architectural details throughout. Features include well-preserved Heart Pine hardwood floors, coffered ceilings in dining & living rooms, beveled glass doors, beadboard ceilings in the bedrooms, penny floor tiles, crystal and brass doorknobs, a built-in storage bench, extensive woodwork and trim details–all preserved with care. Modern mechanical improvements include: foundation leveled and electrical upgrade in 2020, HVAC, roof, gutters, and exterior skirting in 2022. The detached garage includes a separate laundry room with ample space for a craft area, storage, or workspace. An additional workshop/shed with power running to it is located beside it. This distinctive home is woven into the town's history, once serving as the Baptist church's parsonage for the preacher's family. Immersed in local life, you can hear the harmonious chime of church bells on Sunday mornings and enjoy front-row views of town parades from the porch. "Lorelei" is truly special—a rare find offering a unique blend of history and warmth that you won't want to miss.
