Curb appeal, character, and updates inside and out! This beautifully maintained home combines the architectural details you can't easily recreate with extensive updates already completed, plus a flexible floor plan offering excellent options for main-floor living, multi-generational needs, guests, or working from home. The main floor features an open living and dining area filled with character, including French doors, built-ins, and original details throughout. A generously sized main-floor bedroom offers a huge walk-in closet, while a convenient half bath adds functionality. Beautiful French doors lead directly to the deck and covered patio, extending the living space outdoors for relaxing, dining, and entertaining. The kitchen offers excellent storage, including a large wall of pantry cabinetry, and convenient access from the side entrance near the garage makes bringing in groceries easy. Upstairs you'll find two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a flexible office or nursery. One of my favorite surprises is the upstairs office with a door leading to a private rooftop patio, a unique retreat for morning coffee, reading, relaxing, or enjoying some quiet outdoor space. And don't overlook the character: closets flanking the front entry, French doors into the living room, additional French doors in the main-floor bedroom and another set leading outdoors, plus built-in storage throughout give this home personality you simply don't find everywhere. The basement provides abundant storage along with workshop space, while the two-car garage offering nearby side entrance make everyday living especially convenient. Well cared for, maintained, and extensively updated within approximately the last 10 years, improvements include the roof, gutters, windows, electrical circuit breaker panel, plumbing, furnace, water heater, bathrooms, kitchen, appliances, and main-floor flooring. The low-maintenance exterior means even more of the work has already been done for you. If you're looking for an updated home without sacrificing character, a main-floor bedroom, flexible multi-generational living options, two-car garage, workshop and storage space, plus multiple outdoor living areas, this one offers a combination that's hard to find. Some of the furniture may be virtually staged, no alterations or changes to the home!
