This one-of-a-kind Edgewood cottage delivers true “wow” with an effortless flow ideal for entertaining, featuring an open kitchen, dining, sitting room, and an extra-large den with custom built-ins that all connect to a covered stone patio and a professionally designed backyard retreat. Created by the landscape architect behind Rotary Trail and Railroad Park, the outdoor spaces offer intimate gathering areas, water features, mature plantings, landscape lighting, irrigation, and an outdoor shower. Inside, the home offers three spacious bedrooms, a charming primary suite with corner windows and private bath, custom built-ins, plantation shutters, wet bar, and main-level laundry. The detached heated and cooled studio—with full bath, kitchen area, abundant natural light, and a garage door that opens to bring the outdoors in or expand the workspace—is perfect for guests, creatives, or work-from-home needs.
