Every once in a while, a home comes along that captures your heart like no other. Perhaps it’s the expansive wraparound porch, the pretty garden, or the exquisite kitchen, opening into a fireplaced living room. Maybe it’s the inviting dining room, or the rich details found throughout. The allure continues upstairs with a serene primary bedroom featuring an updated ensuite with a steam shower. The common bathroom offers a luxurious soaking tub and elegant marble countertops. Two additional spacious bedrooms & a home office with custom built-ins complete the second floor. Guests will appreciate the privacy and comfort of the third-floor accommodations, while the lovely backyard—featuring a patio, fire pit, and hot tub—invites you to relax and unwind. Modern upgrades provide peace of mind: newer windows, full insulation, LeafGuard gutters, 3-zone heat and A/C, a generator, fans in every bedroom, and a 2-car garage. All that, and just a 10-minute stroll to the beckoning of Phillips Beach!
