It's that house—the one you've driven by a hundred times and always wondered about. A rare Folk Victorian with Southern plantation-style flair, this two-story charmer was built in 1900 and proudly rests on three city lots totaling 1.37 acres with Grand Valley Irrigation water. From its iconic upper-level balcony and wide front porch with a classic swing to its symmetrical façade and tall windows, this home is dripping with character, vintage charm, and much of its original architectural detail still intact. Inside, you'll find the kind of craftsmanship that simply can't be replicated today—blended with just the right updates for comfort: some updated electrical, partially modernized bathrooms, a brand-new roof, and a brand-new high-efficiency furnace with central air. The mature landscaping surrounds the home with shade and privacy, offering peaceful spaces for morning coffee or evening chats under the trees. And then—the shops. Two massive, fully powered shop buildings (40x50 and 30x40), one with an office and bathroom, provide incredible potential for hobbies, storage, business needs, or—a mechanic's dream setup. Outfitted like professional auto bays, these shops are packed with power, space, and function. Whether you're drawn to vintage architecture, dreaming of a home business setup, or just want room to spread out and create, this property offers something truly special—and it's priced to sell. Come explore the house you've always wondered about. It's even better than you imagined, because THERE IS SO MUCH MORE TO THIS PROPERTY!
