Description

Some homes you walk through and immediately feel the care, craftsmanship, and character. This is one of those homes. Built in 1925 and located in the heart of Hastings, this two-story historic home offers 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a wrap-around front porch, a covered side carriage entrance, and a detached two-car brick garage. From the brick and pebble-dash Craftsman exterior to the original woodwork inside, the home has the kind of preserved character and solid construction that rarely exists today. The main level features a spacious kitchen with a center island and plenty of room for gathering, along with generous living spaces and a library that could make an ideal home office, private study, music room, or reading space. The library also has its own separate entrance just off the front steps, giving the home a unique flexibility that fits the way historic homes were thoughtfully designed. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a half bath, an adjoining sleeping porch, and a large walk-in closet with a seated vanity area. Another bedroom features a cedar closet and its own sleeping porch, adding even more function, charm, and personality to the second level. Other highlights include a 3-year-old roof, a 2022 water heater, and hot water boiler heat that provides quiet, even warmth throughout the home. For the buyer who values solid construction, original detail, space, and history over a cookie-cutter home, this is one worth seeing in person. Being in the heart of Hastings, this special home is 1 block from Longfellow Elementary, within two blocks of three churches and 3 blocks from the grocery store!
