House was built in 1865 on a residential street containing multiple historic houses. It was totally renovated in 2025.

Frequently referred to as the "Wedding Cake" house due to its curlicued gingerbread trim along the eaves, the house was built for W.H. Cornell in 1865. Constructed of wood, it has a brick foundation and unique wrought iron casement windows across the front, offering extensive views of Gerry Park and ponds across the street. Step back in time into this charming Victorian home where historic character meets modern comfort in perfect harmony. This thoughtfully renovated 3/4 bedroom, 2 bathroom residence on 1/4 acre, showcases classic board and batten siding while offering today's conveniences in 2100 square feet of living space. The recent 2025 comprehensive renovation brings fresh energy to every corner, featuring a brand new roof, updated flooring, central air, freshly finished walls, a stunning new kitchen that balances period charm with contemporary functionality, and beautifully updated bathrooms -- because while history is wonderful, modern plumbing is even better. A spacious main floor bedroom offers easy accessibility and the finished basement provides additional space for recreation or leisure activities. Yet, for all the updates, you'll still be greeted by character-rich beamed ceilings, a wood burning fireplace, leaded casement and diamond-paned windows, and a graceful arched divider between the living and dining rooms, all remnants of the stories of yesteryear. The generous and private back yard creates an ideal retreat for entertaining or to enjoy quiet moments.
