Step inside to discover a thoughtfully laid-out traditional floor plan with warm oak hardwood floors and abundant natural light. The gracious foyer welcomes you with a staircase leading to the upper levels. To the right, a cozy family room features built-in shelving and a gas fireplace—ideal for gatherings. Just beyond lies a bright, southern-facing room perfect as a playroom, home office, or sunlit den. To the left of the foyer, the formal dining room showcases elegant built-ins and bathes in afternoon light. Adjacent is the updated kitchen, complete with thoughtful wine storage, a breakfast bar, and an eat-in area that captures glorious eastern morning sun—enhanced by stylish shutters. A convenient half bath sits at the rear, just steps from the covered stone patio that overlooks the peaceful, level backyard. A detached two-car garage with convenient alley access completes the outdoor amenities. Upstairs, you’ll find two secondary bedrooms sharing a full hallway bath, plus a generous primary suite with its own bathroom. The finished third-floor attic is a true bonus—offering a spacious main area, a separate nook ideal for a single bed or reading corner, and a full bathroom. This flexible space works beautifully as an additional bedroom, home office, or guest retreat. The lower level features a finished side perfect for a media room, additional office, or comfortable lounge with space for a couch and TV. Another half bath adds convenience, while the opposite side provides ample storage and houses the utility area.
