About this home
Once you step inside, you'll immediately understand where more than $100,000 in thoughtful upgrades and improvements have gone. This is far from a builder-basic home. It has been carefully customized, meticulously maintained, and transformed into a warm, one-of-a-kind retreat with the timeless charm of a storybook cottage. From the moment you arrive, the striking stone façade, paver walkways, mature landscaping, and exceptional curb appeal create an inviting first impression. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed to make this home feel both elegant and welcoming. Then there's the backyard...the true showstopper. Designed for entertaining and everyday enjoyment, the expansive hardscaped patio offers multiple gathering spaces accented by an elegant knee wall. Beyond it, mature shade trees frame a lush green space, creating a peaceful, park-like setting rarely found in today's market. A separate circular conversation area is perfect for a fire pit, evening cocktails, morning coffee, or simply relaxing and enjoying the tranquil surroundings. Inside, cottage charm blends effortlessly with modern comfort. This move-in-ready home offers 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a dedicated office/flex room complete with custom built-ins and a thoughtfully designed workspace.
