The exterior features a classic brick-and-siding facade, dark shutters, a covered front porch, and a wide front lawn that gives the home a comfortable, established feel.Inside, the home opens to a large foyer with hardwood floors, stained wood trim, classic wainscoting, and wood-cased openings that carry throughout much of the main level. Just off the foyer is a formal dining room with picture-frame molding, chair rail, crown molding,and warm wood detailing. The kitchen offers a spacious eat-in layout with tile flooring, abundant stained wood cabinetry, raised-panel doors, crown molding details, stone-look countertops, stainless and black appliances (refrigerator coveys), a tile backsplash over the range, and a peninsula with casual bar seating. Large windows overlook the backyard, and the adjoining breakfast area keeps the kitchen connected to the main living space. A few steps down, the living room is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with gas logs, a raised hearth, built-in shelving, hardwood floors, and a two-story vaulted ceiling. Large windows bring in natural light, while the upper-level overlook adds to the open feel of the room. A back door provides direct access to the covered patio and backyard. The main level also includes a half bathroom, and a spacious laundry/mud room with tile flooring, storage cabinets, included washer and dryer, plus direct access to the back patio. Upstairs, the landing overlooks the living room below and leads to all four bedrooms, an office, and the full bathrooms. The office offers a quiet flex space with neutral carpet, stained wood trim, crown molding, clerestory windows, and a built-in desk nook--well-suited for a home office, study, hobby room, or additional storage space.
