About This Home

As of July 2025

Brand new listing in the heart of Poets Corner! An absolute charmer on a "storybook" street. Maintained to perfection from the exquisite garden to the major expansion projects. Here's just a partial list of the many upgrades: The primary suite/wing is an addition featuring double entry doors, mantled electric fireplace, custom closet/barn doors, ship-lap trim accents, a double sink vanity plus expanded shower, and even a laundry room. The other wing of the house features two bedrooms with remodeled bathroom. The (gas) kitchen was efficiently remodeled while still preserving its cozy breakfast nook. A wood burning fireplace is the center piece for the formal dining and living room, finished-off with crown molding accents & recessed lighting. The manicured garden is complete with outdoor living elements and an irrigation connection to canal water. A substantial RV driveway leads to an 18x30 garage/shop with 9ft clearance. So sorry, but no Open House is planned.
