About this home

This is your opportunity to own a piece of local history with this captivating 1930 architectural masterpiece, nestled in the heart of Beaver. Known affectionately as the "Craner Cottage", this historically recognized residence at 340 Insurance Street represents a rare opportunity to own a timeless work of art crafted by a celebrated local architect John Craner. Extensive exterior updates in 2022 elevated the property's storybook charm and significantly enhanced Craner's signature clinker brick and slate roof design. Enhancements include Pella windows, a flagstone front porch and walkway, professional landscaping, and a concrete driveway which leads to the stamped concrete turnaround, 2 car garage and private backyard. Once there, the expansive composite deck creates an ideal outdoor retreat for entertaining guests or unwinding in complete privacy. Additionally in 2022, the home's interior underwent a comprehensive top-to-bottom renovation as well, seamlessly blending old-world architectural integrity with top-tier modern convenience. At the heart of the interior transformation is a magnificent gourmet kitchen, complete with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, Miele appliances and slate tile flooring. Following historic preservation guidelines, the home has maintained much of the original interior woodwork and beautiful solid wood doors. In the living room, the original fireplace was updated for safety and further enhanced with a backlit agate stone focal piece above the mantel and is absolutely stunning. The second floor renovations added an expanded ensuite for the primary bedroom, a guest bathroom and a convenient second laundry area. The lower level of this amazing property is also worth noting as it is there that you will find a large walk-in cedar closet, laundry area, ample storage and versatile space to convert into a home office, exercise room or game room. The entire home has surround sound, updated PEX plumbing and electrical. 340 Insurance Street is most certainly a home in which you will find comfort and enjoyment, again and again.
