About This Home
As of July 2026Step through the picket gate into a world of timeless elegance in the historic Cobb Terrace subdivision. This 4-bedroom, 3-bath Craftsman welcomes you with a classic covered front porch and original heart of pine flooring that glows with history. The main level is designed for both grand entertaining and quiet moments, featuring a library-like living room (which offers flexibility as a main-level bedroom) and a cozy family room anchored by a fireplace and custom built-ins.
The heart of the home is an open kitchen boasting a five-burner gas range, a prep island, and a sunny breakfast nook. Retreat to the spectacular sunroom, where walls of windows frame the lush gardens, and a vented fireplace makes it a year-round sanctuary. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a rare, attached sun nook with treetop views and an expansive walk-in closet with a built-in dresser. There are two additional bright bedrooms on the 2nd floor.
The basement level adds incredible versatility to this historic gem. Featuring both interior and private exterior entrances, the space includes a bedroom, large family room, laundry, and its own kitchen--an ideal setup for a guest apartment, income-producing rental, or multi-generational suite. Outside, the grounds are a landscaped masterpiece of terraced gardens, brick pathways, and stone walls. Enjoy the ultimate downtown lifestyle, just steps from campus, local dining, and boutique shopping.
