Strategically positioned off the kitchen and beyond its practical utility, the mudroom serves as a transitional zone, providing seamless access to the attached 2-car garage.

Ascending to the upper level, you'll discover a convenient laundry room and four additional bedrooms, each offering ample space. Two secondary bedrooms are connected by a Jack and Jill bathroom with double sinks, while the third bedroom features a private attached bathroom. The primary bedroom exudes luxury with its tray ceiling, two large walk-in closets equipped with top-of-the-line custom organizers/California closets, and a lavish ensuite bathroom complete with double sinks, a soaking tub, and a frameless shower. The expansive basement offers even more living space, featuring two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and soaring 17 foot ceilings. Entertainment options abound with a bonus room ideal for an exercise room or theater/media room, as well as a gas fireplace and large storage room. Outside, the Governor's Hill community provides a quite retreat with its tucked-away ambiance, while still offering easy access to the vibrant shopping, dining, and entertainment of Old Town. Commuting is a breeze with major highways such as 95 and 495 nearby, and the Huntington Metro station just a 3-minute drive or 20-minute walk away.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
