About this home

Welcome to 3 Shell Rd in the convenient & sunny Horse Hill neighborhood of MV. Situated on a level, street-to-street lot originally built in the 1940's. This quintessential cottage boasts tons of character & charm. The home features an open living room with custom window benches on either side of a fabulous fireplace insert. The room flows effortlessly to the dining room & then to the open kitchen. The kitchen features white cabinets, light countertops & stainless appliances. There are two bedrooms- a guest room and a primary. The primary has a dreamy pair of French doors that open to the grounds. A shared bathroom, with white wainscoting & stylish wallpaper are just too perfect. There's also a darling side porch for storing shoes, coats which contains the laundry. The backyard boasts a level, sun-filled lawn and is surrounded by mature trees and plantings. Plus there is a detached garage - currently used as a workout/storage room.
