Situated on a picturesque brick-paved street in a welcoming residential neighborhood, this classic brick Prairie-style home exudes charm and character. As it sits on a beautifully landscaped corner lot-once featured on the local Garden Walk-it offers a rare blend of architectural detail, natural light, and cozy elegance. Nearby Evans at Canal Shores Golf Course adds to the appeal of this sought-after location. The enclosed front porch invites you in with its original limestone accents, casement windows, and oval front door-a perfect introduction to the vintage craftsmanship found throughout. Inside, hardwood floors, high ceilings, and large windows create a bright, airy ambiance. The living room features a classic fireplace and opens into a bay area with casement windows-ideal for a piano or reading nook. A formal dining room showcases leaded glass windows and a built-in corner cabinet with soft lighting. The thoughtfully updated kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar and an expansive granite counter that extends into the sunlit family room. With an east-facing wall of windows, the family room is bathed in morning light and overlooks a serene patio and garden oasis. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom includes French doors leading to a tandem room wrapped in windows-perfect for a nursery, home office, or private sitting area. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the second floor. The partially finished basement has lots of flexible space, plentiful storage and a full bath. Potential exists for the expansion of the third floor's large open attic. From the abundant natural light to the timeless details and beautifully maintained gardens, this home is a true gem-offering comfort, character, and an unbeatable location.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
