A Beloved 1918 Family Home – 5 Beds, 2 Baths on a 12,000+ Sq Ft Lot. For the first time in over a century, this cherished 1918 home is being offered to the public. Built with care and lovingly held by the same family since the day its foundation was laid, this 1.5-story residence carries with it a legacy of warmth, tradition, and timeless charm. From the moment you step into the fully enclosed front porch, you’ll feel the history woven into every detail—a perfect place where generations have gathered to enjoy cool Spring breezes, golden Summer evenings, and crisp Fall nights. Inside, you'll drool over the original hardwood floors, rich woodwork, and stately columns and ceiling beams that showcase the home’s rich history, while offering a sturdy, beautiful backdrop for new memories to unfold. The main floor invites both comfort and versatility, featuring a welcoming living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a remodeled kitchen with stainless appliances, a dining room, a full bath, and a versatile flex room that has served many roles over the decades—bedroom, den, office, or playroom. A main floor bedroom also provides convenience and charm. The upper level adds four more bedrooms with remarkably large closets and a convenient 1/2 bath in one of the rooms...creating space for family and guests alike. The basement is an open canvas just waiting to be transformed. Plenty of open space for a family room, another workshop space, storage and an amazing storm shelter with a crank for fresh air...that would make an amazing wine cellar! :) The generous 12,000+ sq ft lot offers room to stretch out, with a detached 2-stall garage that includes a bonus room off the back, perfect for a workshop or extra storage. A small backyard casita with heat and A/C (no plumbing) is brimming with potential —currently used as a wood shop, but ideal as a man cave, she-shed, playhouse, hobby studio or anything you can dream up! Located just north of downtown, this home is close to NDSU, Sanford Hospital, the interstate, and everything you need for convenient city living. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of local history—this beloved family home is ready to welcome its next chapter!
