*Open House Sun 1/11 12-2pm* Some homes give you just enough space. This one gives you freedom. Set on a rare double lot inside the city, ''The Half-Acre Haven'' stretches across more than half an acre, with a wide deck, a large shed, and a backyard that feels more like a private park than a yard. |+| Mornings begin on the porch with a mug in hand, watching the neighborhood wake up, and the morning sun moves across the lawn. Afternoons shift to the deck where burgers sizzle, music hums, and friends gather around your picnic table. Evenings can settle in under string lights, when laughter mixes with the sound of crickets and the glow from a nearby firepit. This backyard holds space for every season... snowmen in winter, bare feet in summer, and leaf piles big enough for a running jump. It's the kind of space that reminds you why outdoor living never goes out of style. |+| Inside, the split-level layout keeps things practical and comfortable. Three bedrooms and a full bath rest on the upper level, while the lower level adds a large gathering area anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, a second full bath, and a laundry zone that keeps chores out of sight. The main level is home to your living room and eat-in kitchen. |+| Newer siding, gutters, and windows give the home a refreshed feel, while the interior invites new ideas. The deck was recently power-washed, and the shed is ready for tools, hobbies, or weekend projects that need a little elbow room. Even on a busy street, the front porch finds its calm, offering a place to watch the day slow down before heading inside. |+| Owning a property like this is rare, offering city access, space to breathe, and a backyard built for every version of you: gardener, griller, dreamer, or doer. ''The Half-Acre Haven'' isn't about perfection; it's about possibility, comfort, and wide-open weekends waiting for you.
