Property Description
Your reimagined storybook cottage, nestled amongst the soaring trees of the highly desired Elmwood neighborhood, is ready for its next chapter. Meticulous landscaping and bright shutters accent this Craftsman style home, where a welcoming porch invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Inside, preserved charm blends seamlessly with modern amenities to create a true oasis, as original hardwoods pair beautifully with a clean, crisp color palette and playful accent walls. An open concept layout effortlessly combines two living spaces with a central dining area, making it ideal for gathering and hosting loved ones, while updated, efficient windows bathe the home in natural light. A cozy gas fireplace anchors the second living area, adding warmth and ambiance, while the thoughtfully designed new kitchen offers ample quartz prep space, an island with bar seating, a sleek cooktop and wall oven, and a striking dimensional subway tile backsplash, all overlooking pristine, cottage style gardens. A spacious walk in pantry, rare for a home of this age, adds both charm and function. The primary bedroom serves as a peaceful retreat with direct access to a beautifully styled screened in side porch that also connects to an additional secondary room, while the well equipped bathroom features a showstopping walk in shower with glass door. A third bedroom enjoys convenient access to a second full bath, and a unique basement provides treasured extra storage. Outdoors, your story continues in the redesigned backyard, perfect for cookouts and quiet evenings alike, with bright privacy fencing, a gorgeous paver patio, a gas fireplace hookup, and the shade of mature trees creating a serene setting. Here, an idyllic and charming lifestyle is not just imagined, it is waiting to be lived.
