    What's special

    Detached garageMature settingClassic curb appealThoughtful modern updatesLayout that simply works
    A rare blend of original 1940 character and thoughtful modern updates, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home delivers the kind of feel you can't reproduce in new construction. Inside, you'll find tasteful renovations throughout — designed to honor the home's heritage while bringing every space up to today's standards. The detached garage is the showstopper. Oversized and beautifully appointed, it includes a half bath and a finished office — ideal for a home-based business, a workshop with comfort built in, a studio, or extended use for guests, hobbies, or family. Outside, the fully fenced yard offers privacy and security, and the additional outbuilding adds storage or hobby space without taking from the main home. Mature setting, classic curb appeal, and a layout that simply works.
