Beautifully designed one owner home nestled on a gorgeous oversized corner lot! Thoughtfully designed with the character and charm of a historic home while offering the comfort and convenience of modern amenities. The spacious dining area features beautiful parquet wood flooring and flows into a chef-inspired kitchen complete with granite countertops, tumbled-stone backsplash, stainless steel appliances and ample cabinetry. A generous living area with a wood burning fireplace opens beautifully to the outdoor patio, creating a wonderful space for everyday living and entertaining. The home offers two generously sized secondary bedrooms plus a private primary suite featuring an ensuite bath with a large walk-in shower, built-in cabinetry and closet. An additional adjoining room provides wonderful flexibility and would be ideal as a nursery, home office, game room, craft room or additional bedroom. Outside, the beautifully landscaped corner lot is equally impressive with mature shade trees, a circle drive, perimeter brick and iron fencing, and a lovely fenced backyard. An oversized two car side-entry garage provides excellent parking and storage, while an attached 21’ x 10’ home office with private access through the garage creates a dedicated space for working from home. Two additional storage buildings-workshop areas with electricity offer even more versatility. Loaded with character, flexible living spaces and thoughtful extras inside and out, this special property has so much to offer!
