Tucked beneath a graceful tree canopy on a generous lot, "Wilbur's Cottage" is a 1957 treasure lovingly reimagined for modern living. With 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, this fully renovated home blends timeless charm with thoughtful updates throughout. Custom storybook-style window boxes and planters greet you at the front, framed by fresh landscaping with blooming perennials designed to delight year after year. Inside, discover a fully renovated kitchen with custom cabinetry, a beautifully updated primary bath, and a light-filled layout that feels both fresh and familiar. The guest bath preserves the home's mid-century soul, featuring the original porcelain tub and salvaged tile. Outside, the home has a brand new roof, new insulation, and all-new siding. Lovingly held by the same family for three generations, "Wilbur's Cottage" is more than a home it's a story of warmth, character, and care waiting for its next chapter.
