Redfin agents who toured
The atrium was easily the star of the house.
It brought so much natural light into the home and completely changed the feel of the space. I immediately pictured it filled with plants… or that one wild friend who somehow convinces everyone to stay...
for “just one more drink.”
The front door was another fun detail. It’s a Dutch door, so you can open just the top half. Perfect for saying hello to the neighbors… or keeping that one friend who’s always trying to extend the party on the other side.
The bathrooms were beautifully updated, the design choices felt thoughtful throughout, and the layout made the house feel much larger than I expected.
For a 2-bedroom home, this one packed in a surprising amount of style and personality.
