This 1928 American Foursquare housed Mary and Bob Anderson's Jack and Jill Nursery School for 35 years. The large, fenced yard, once a playground, is now full of mature trees and flower beds and has ample room for kids, pets, gardens and entertaining. Recent improvements include new roof, downspouts, gutter toppers, siding, energy efficient Andersen Renewal windows, entry doors, and an upgraded electrical circuit panel. The eat-in kitchen features solid surface counters and custom cabinetry framing the exposed brick wall. A 3-season sunroom off the kitchen is an inviting space for coffee. The dining room has large windows overlooking the backyard. The generous living room features a fireplace with original Ernest Batchelder Arts and Crafts tiles. French doors separate the living room and family room. An office, half bath and large enclosed front porch are on the main level.

The basement laundry room includes a washer/dryer, water heater, water softener, refrigerator, freezer. The pantry and workroom have extensive storage space. The garage is accessed through the basement and has 3 stalls. A single garage in front is the woodworking shop. The double garage opens to a level driveway.
