JUST LISTED! Nestled in one of the most beloved neighborhoods, this beautifully maintained Four Square home is a true gem. The welcoming front porch is perfect for those long summer nights, and the interior boasts gleaming hardwood floors that complement the rich wood trim throughout the home. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms, including one that was originally two rooms, offering flexibility and extra space. A charming four-season porch off one of the bedrooms adds the perfect spot for a quiet retreat. The spa-like bathroom, fully renovated in 2020, features high-end finishes and thoughtful design that make it a true sanctuary. The third floor offers exciting potential to create an additional suite with a full bath already in place—ideal for guests, a home office, or a private getaway. The kitchen, updated in 2023, looks straight out of a magazine complete with a bar sink with glass rinser and opens up to a spacious deck where you can enjoy your private backyard oasis. Beyond the home itself, the location is unbeatable. You can stroll to nearby shops and restaurants, or simply enjoy peaceful walks along the tree-lined sidewalks among other beautifully kept homes. It’s a place where community and charm come together. In addition to the kitchen and bathroom renovations, the home has seen numerous updates over the years, including exterior painting in 2023, a paved driveway in 2017, a new garage roof in 2020, a new sliding door in 2018, and updated mechanicals including the furnace and AC in 2016 and hot water heater in 2014. This is a rare opportunity to own a lovingly cared-for home in a truly special neighborhood. Offers will be considered on wednesday, July 16th at 3:00 PM—don’t miss your chance to make it yours!
