About this home

This one-of-a-kind home sits across from Emma McCarthy Lee Park on a large, fully fenced, tree-filled 17,850 sq ft lot. It offers more than 2,900 sq ft of well-finished living space, including a completely remodeled kitchen with quartz countertops, white cabinets, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, hood vent, hardwood floors, and soft-close drawers. The home has 5 bedrooms—3 on the main level and two non-conforming bedroom in the lower level. The roof and Leaf Gutter Guards were replaced in 2022. A bright 3-season porch provides a great spot for morning coffee or a quiet place to read. Additional features include wood-burning fireplaces on both levels, main-level laundry, an oversized garage, and a charming A-frame backyard shed that could also serve as a playhouse. Tour this home in person to truly appreciate everything it offers. You'll be glad you did.
