Some homes are simply places to live. Others become the backdrop to a life well-lived. This is the latter. Let's begin our tour in the backyard — it's a showstopper. A sweep of lush, genuine lawn unfolds before you. But it's the spacious covered patio that will stop you in your tracks. This outdoor living "room" doesn't ask you to choose between seasons. In July, it's the natural center of every gathering—long dinners, cold drinks, the kind of evening that stretches into night without anyone noticing. Come October, you're out here with a wool blanket and a hot cup of coffee, watching the leaves turn. The outdoors isn't something you retreat from here—it's something you live in, year-round, comfortably. The home's floor plan carries history. Originally one of the first Group 13 duplexes built in North Community, this converted single-family residence has a layout that no architect would design from scratch—which is precisely what makes it so livable. Four true bedrooms. Two additional rooms with closets—currently dressed as a private office and a sunny reading room—are both capable of becoming whatever the next chapter requires. A beautifully renovated kitchen serves as the home's quiet center, connecting the indoors to outdoors, the casual to celebratory. What was once the second kitchen has been reimagined as a laundry and mud room: practical, hardworking, and precisely what a home this active deserves. First-floor guest bath? Yes, and a rare addition to a Group 13. Four parking spots? All yours. Storage? Abundant, which means gear has a home and the living spaces stay clear. There's room to move here. Room to gather. Room to spill out of the house and stay there. This is not a house that needs you to imagine its potential. Its character is already here, waiting for someone who recognizes it. The patio is ready. The fire is easy to light. The lawn—that glorious, verdant lawn—is yours. See it and fall in love.
