Located in Ashton Heights, the home with a brick veneer facade is 3,240 square feet, featuring three bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, and a two-car driveway.

Past a mosaic-tiled entryway, the living room welcomes you into the nearly 90-year-old home. Gather around the wood-burning fireplace during the winter or open up the wood shutters during the spring to enjoy the natural light and property views. Pay attention to the details of the fireplace to find mosaic tiling that matches the flooring at the entryway.
