Property Description

IF THESE WALLS COULD TALK! Dating back to circa 1893, this charming Merrill home has more than a century of stories behind it and plenty of room for new memories to be made. With four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, generous living spaces, and an inviting street-side approach, this is a home with character you simply can't duplicate in new construction. First impressions count, and this home certainly makes a memorable one! Beautiful perennial beds grace the front of the property, creating a welcoming display of color and texture throughout the growing season. The striking red steel roof complements the exterior, while vinyl siding and updated windows help keep exterior maintenance manageable. Inside, the heart of this home is undoubtedly the HUGE country kitchen! Forget squeezing around a tiny island or bumping elbows while preparing dinner. Here you'll find an abundance of countertops and cupboards, plenty of room for multiple cooks, and space for a large dining table where everyone can gather. Whether it's Sunday dinner, holiday baking, or simply catching up over morning coffee, this kitchen was made for spending time together. Just off the kitchen is a spacious butler's pantry that also serves as the laundry room, conveniently positioned between the kitchen and rear entrance. It's the kind of practical bonus space that makes everyday living a little easier. The main floor also features a generously sized entry foyer, a full bathroom, and a bedroom, offering the convenience of main-level sleeping accommodations. Head upstairs and you'll discover three additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and a large centrally located gathering space. One of the delightful features of an older home is the flexibility of its floor plan. In fact, a previous arrangement utilized the central gathering space as a bedroom, with an adjoining smaller bedroom serving as a walk-in closet. Perhaps you'd prefer a sitting room, reading nook, hobby area, or additional gathering space? The possibilities are yours to explore! A blacktop driveway provides off-street parking and leads to a detached cinder block garage. The full basement offers basic utility and storage space. And let's not forget the location! Situated in Merrill, affectionately known as the City of Parks, this property enjoys a setting with parks and riverfront amenities nearby. Opportunities to enjoy the outdoors and the conveniences of city living add to the appeal. If you're drawn to homes with history, appreciate generous gathering spaces, and love the idea of adding your own chapter to a property that's been part of the community for more than 130 years, this charming oldie deserves a closer look. Some homes are simply built to house people. Others are built to hold memories. This one has been doing both since 1893!
