With over 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, the home radiates character and warmth. A hallway lined with French doors creates a seamless connection to the outdoors, leading to a gourmet kitchen featuring custom walnut cabinetry, granite countertops, and an apron-front sink. The adjacent living and dining areas flow into a light-filled sunroom, perfect for soaking in the surrounding landscape.

The main level also includes a flexible guest suite, while upstairs offers two spacious bedrooms, a Jack-and-Jill bath, and a versatile study nook. The exterior is a masterclass in outdoor living.
