About this home

Character abounds in this beautiful single-family home! A covered front porch welcomes you to 4 Bedrooms and 2.5 Bathrooms, stunning hardwood flooring, and crown moulding trim around the doors and windows. The main level Foyer leads to a formal Living Room with cozy fireplace and double french doors to the back yard. Bring family and friends together in the formal Dining Room, or grab a quick bite in the breakfast nook off the Kitchen. The Kitchen features gorgeous butcher-block countertops with decorative tile backsplash, clean white cabinetry with glass-front facings, and stainless-steel appliances with gas range and hood. Relax with your morning coffee, or evening wine, in the enclosed porch/sunroom with decorative wood beams and stone-accents pillars. There is an abundance of natural light thanks to the numerous casement windows. The upper level has inlaid flooring in the Loft, which is perfect for an in-home office or craft area. The finished attic space offers a 4th bed and bath, as well as a Bonus Room. Bonus Room would be great for Family Movie Nights, Kids’ Play Room, or Media Area. The Laundry Room is located in the unfinished basement. Mature trees and landscape make the back yard private, and there is a 1-car detached garage. Beautiful Home! Great Location!
