Description

Exceptional Value – Listed Below Appraised Value! Buyer Incentive Alert! The seller is offering up to $20,000 in seller credits that buyers can use toward a rate buydown, closing costs, or other allowable expenses. This incentive is being offered through April 1, 2026, creating a powerful opportunity to lower your monthly payment and make homeownership more affordable from day one. This stunning, move-in-ready home blends rich local history with modern comfort and convenience. Once owned by the original Chapman family—namesakes of Chapman Park—the property offers timeless character, including a rare original hand-dug well that adds a meaningful connection to the past. Step inside and be pleasantly surprised by how peaceful the home feels. Mature, sound-buffering landscaping creates a quiet retreat. The spacious living room welcomes you in, while a separate media or family room provides the perfect space for movie nights, entertaining, or multi-generational living. The kitchen features granite countertops and a beautifully framed view of the private backyard, and the dining area showcases original hardwood floors that add warmth and character. The main level includes one bedroom and a fully remodeled bathroom, ideal for guests or extended family. Upstairs, you’ll find three additional bedrooms and two fully remodeled bathrooms. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a private ensuite featuring a walk-in shower, separate soaking tub, walk-in closet, and additional storage. Built-in storage is thoughtfully integrated throughout the home, and the fully lit crawl space allows for easy access and organization. The heating system has been recently serviced, offering peace of mind for the next owner. The home is perfectly situated on the main thoroughfare while still offering privacy and tranquility, and is located just one block from the high school, three blocks from the golf course, and minutes from groceries, parks, medical facilities, and other everyday amenities. Quick and easy access in and out of town adds to the convenience of this prime location. Outside, the beautifully landscaped yard is designed for low-maintenance enjoyment and entertaining. Automatic sprinklers, a covered patio, and an automated greenhouse make outdoor living effortless, while mature landscaping provides privacy and a serene atmosphere. This is a rare opportunity to own one of the most beautiful and historically significant homes in town—priced below appraised value, impeccably maintained, and enhanced with generous seller incentives. Now is the time to make it yours. Schedule your showing today and take advantage of the $20,000 seller credit—available through April 1, 2026!
