Welcome to this adorable single-level cottage nestled on a fully fenced lot with an oversized detached two-car garage. From the moment you arrive, the home’s charming stone-accented front entry and classic stucco exterior set the tone for timeless appeal.
Step onto the inviting front porch, where stone walls, large windows, and a ceiling fan create a perfect spot to relax in any season. Inside, you’re greeted by a spacious living room featuring beautiful original Craftsman-style woodwork and gleaming hardwood floors. The entire interior has been freshly painted and showcases all-new lighting throughout.
The adjoining formal dining room is a showstopper, complete with a built-in hutch boasting original glass-front cabinets and detailed millwork that speaks to the home’s rich history. The main floor offers two generously sized bedrooms and a fully updated full bathroom with new flooring, a modern shower surround, vanity, and lighting.
The kitchen is bright and clean - fully remodeled with crisp white cabinetry, sleek countertops, and new stainless steel appliances. A back door leads to your private backyard and a convenient walkway to the garage.
Downstairs, you’ll find a large family room, an additional bonus room ideal for a home office or den, and a stylish three-quarter bath with a tiled shower. The laundry room is clean, spacious, and features a brand new washer and dryer.
An exciting bonus: NEW boiler!! The large upper-level expansion space offers tons of potential to add finished square footage—perfect for a future bedroom suite, creative studio, or flex space. So many possibilities to make it your own!
This move-in ready home is agent-owned, and a full TISH report is available in the supplements. FHA and VA offers are welcome!
