Don’t let the charming cottage exterior fool you—this beauty has a whole lot more to offer than meets the eye, this home delivers space, flexibility, and that hard-to-find feeling of being completely removed, all while living in an amenity rich neighborhood. Step inside and you’re greeted with warm hardwood floors, a welcoming living room, and a layout that just makes sense. The main level features a spacious primary suite, a large kitchen built for gathering (and let’s be honest—showing off a little), open to dining room, and an additional family room that gives everyone room to spread out without stepping on each other’s toes. Upstairs? Three generously sized bedrooms. Thanks to spray foam insulation, all of the extra storage spaces could keep your holiday decor in great shape for many years. But here’s where it gets even better… the above-garage apartment. Whether it’s guests, in-laws, a private office, or income potential, this separate space adds incredible versatility and brings the total living space to 2,636 sq ft.
Outside, the story continues. Surrounded by mature trees on all four sides, this property offers the kind of privacy that’s getting harder and harder to find. The half-acre lot gives you breathing room, while the freshly painted exterior keeps everything looking crisp and move-in ready. The garage also includes a climate-controlled space that can easily be converted back, giving you even more options depending on your needs.
