Fully renovated and full of charm, this Ferndale gem blends modern updates with cozy, cottage-inspired character. Featuring 4 bedrooms—3 on the main level and an upstairs retreat with bonus flex space—this home offers versatility in a perfectly sized footprint.
The stone exterior sets the tone with its storybook, English cottage feel, while the enclosed front porch creates the ultimate three-season spot for morning coffee or winding down at the end of the day.
Inside, you’ll find beautiful updated flooring, fresh neutral paint, and a stylishly refreshed kitchen with quartz countertops. The layout flows with ease, making both everyday living and entertaining feel effortless.
Upstairs, the additional bedroom and flex space offer the perfect setup for a home office, guest suite, or creative escape.
What truly makes this home stand out—especially for Ferndale—is how it sits on the lot. With extra side yard space and a setting that feels more open and lightly wooded than typical, it offers a rare sense of breathing room you don’t often find.
The backyard adds even more charm with a cute, private space ideal for relaxing or hosting, plus the convenience of a two-car garage. A thoughtfully installed French drain system helps manage seasonal water and adds an extra layer of confidence in the home’s outdoor functionality.
Major updates include a newer A/C (2023) and the added bonus of an electric vehicle charger already in place.
Move-in ready with character, updates, and a setting that’s hard to find—this is Ferndale living with a little extra space to breathe.
