The beautifully finished basement, remodeled in 2024, expands your living space even further with a fantastic remodeled laundry room, large rec room, dedicated gym area, and a hidden secret door leading to a woodworking room-an incredible and unique feature. Original character has been meticulously preserved, including restored woodwork, a built-in antique sideboard, pocket doors, hardwood floors, and an ornate oak column.
