Situated on an expansive .67-acre property, This charming Victorian, built in 1896, offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Ashland's history.

The main level continues with a remodeled kitchen featuring a large center island, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a large pantry. A bright morning room and dining area, cozy family room with built-ins and fireplace, versatile utility room ideal for a studio or workshop, and full bath complete the first floor.
