About This Home

Step into classic charm and everyday comfort with this move-in ready 3+ bedroom home in the heart of Peru. Brimming with character, this vintage beauty features warmth and timeless appeal throughout. Greet guests from the welcoming covered front porch or relax year-round in the cozy four-season side porch-both offering inviting spaces to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day. Inside, the flexible layout adapts to your lifestyle. A separate living room provides the option for a fourth bedroom, home office, or guest retreat, while the formal dining room is ideal for hosting holidays and gatherings. The main floor has been refreshed with new luxury vinyl flooring and carpet, along with a freshly painted interior that highlights the home's vintage character. Thoughtful updates bring added peace of mind, including a new stainless-steel refrigerator, new window unit air conditioner, and exterior improvements-windows, roof, siding, and gutters-all replaced within the last decade. Full of personality and practical updates, this charming home is ready to welcome its next owner.
