About This Home
Thoughtfully reimagined and expanded, this elegant residence offers a refined balance of timeless character and modern design, unfolding across three beautifully finished levels with a rare, layered indoor-outdoor living experience. A welcoming front porch introduces a sunlit main level defined by clean architectural lines, rich hardwood flooring, and a seamless open-concept layout. The living, dining, and family spaces flow effortlessly, creating a sophisticated yet highly livable environment. At the center, the kitchen is both functional and well-appointed, featuring a generous island, extensive cabinetry, and abundant natural light, designed to anchor both daily living and entertaining. Just beyond the dining area, the main level opens to an elevated rear deck, ideal for al fresco dining and outdoor gatherings. Below, a fully covered and screened terrace extends from the lower level, complete with a fireplace and dedicated seating area, offering a private, year-round retreat that significantly enhances the home’s outdoor living footprint. Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms include a spacious primary suite with vaulted ceilings, dual closets, and a recently renovated en-suite bath. The primary bathroom features double vanities, a skylight that fills the space with natural light, and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and a well-appointed hall bath provide flexibility for guests, work-from-home needs, or additional living space. The fully finished lower level is designed for versatility, featuring a spacious recreation room ideal for a media lounge, playroom, or fitness area, along with a full bath. Direct access to the screened terrace creates a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living on this level, making it equally suited for relaxation and entertaining. Throughout, thoughtful updates and cohesive design choices elevate the home’s overall aesthetic, while multiple distinct living areas, both inside and out, offer a level of flexibility and comfort rarely found. Ideally positioned with convenient access to neighborhood parks, dining, and commuter routes, this residence delivers a sophisticated urban lifestyle with exceptional livability.
