Property Description

MLS# 295182 Known affectionately as "Mabel," this remarkable 1913 Transitional Victorian beautifully showcases the evolution from Victorian elegance to Craftsman design. Rich with history, craftsmanship, and timeless character, this one-of-a-kind property offers five bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an exceptionally rare opportunity with three tax parcels, including the separately platted, fully buildable lot at 1006 S. Lake Street.Built by local businessman H.M. Love, whose name remains stamped in the sidewalk, Mabel has been lovingly cared for by only four owners in more than a century. Maple hardwood floors grace the main level, while original fir flooring highlights the bedrooms and staircase. The kitchen and upstairs bathroom feature durable Marmoleum flooring, while the mudroom offers Moduelo luxury vinyl plank flooring, a large pantry, and an additional laundry hookup. Upstairs laundry adds everyday convenience, and generous storage can be found throughout the home with oversized bedroom closets, deep under-eave storage, and abundant closet space.Thoughtful improvements preserve the home's historic charm while providing modern comfort. Electrical wiring was completely updated in 2009 with the removal of original knob-and-tube wiring, nearly all windows were replaced with easy-clean flip-out windows, and the lower bathroom was remodeled down to the studs in 2013. The home was professionally painted approximately five years ago, exterior steps were rebuilt in 2015, porch decking and railings were freshly painted in 2026, and the garage roof has also been updated. Additional features include a Honeywell smart thermostat, a six-zone Rain Bird irrigation system, reverse-osmosis filtration at the utility sink, and a high-capacity mini-split system sized to accommodate future ducting for the main floor if desired.The unfinished basement provides abundant storage, a workshop area with plumbing available for a future sink, and additional space ready for your ideas.Adding even more value, the separately platted 1006 S. Lake Street lot is fully buildable with power, gas, and sewer already available—offering incredible flexibility for future construction, investment potential, or expanded living opportunities.This is more than a home—it's an opportunity to become the next steward of one of the community's treasured historic residences while enjoying modern updates, exceptional flexibility, and room to make your own mark on a truly special property.
