Home Details for 172 Church Street

This Victorian knows how to make an entrance. Think storybook porch, red-brick charm, and just enough original detail to keep things interesting with stained glass, exposed brick, tin ceilings, and wood trim that's seen more than a century of living. Built in 1890 and thoughtfully updated ever since, it strikes that sweet balance between history and comfort. Inside, the living room has built-ins that practically demand a good novel, while the dining room was made for lingering over conversation. The kitchen had a full glow-up in 2020 with quartz counters, clever hidden storage, and all the modern appliances you'd hope for, while still holding onto its old soul. The main-floor office/den is a chameleon: exposed brick, a cozy gas fireplace, its own side entrance, and even a powder room close by. Perfect if you need a home office or just a quiet retreat. Upstairs, three bright bedrooms share space with a four-piece bath and (praise be) second-storey laundry. No more lugging baskets up and down the stairs. The yard stretches deep with two zones: fenced up front for kids or pets, and unfenced gardens in the back for anyone with a green thumb. The detached garage (rebuilt in 2015) and resurfaced driveway (2019) take care of parking, while the behind-the-scenes updates, sewer lines (2013), roof (2016-17), furnace (2023, heat-pump ready), water heater and mudroom floor (2024), plus a fresh front path and front steps, mean less worry and more enjoyment. It's a house with character, comfort, and plenty of stories left to tell. Charm? Check. Modern comfort? Double check. All that's missing is someone who loves a little history with their morning espresso. (id:31684)
