Rich hardwood floors flow across an expansive main level, highlighting custom built-ins, oversized windows, and distinctive designer fixtures. The fireside family room opens seamlessly to a spacious dining area, while a versatile den/office on the main level offers the perfect space for remote work or a quiet retreat.

The eat-in kitchen blends modern farmhouse charm with function, featuring naturally finished wood cabinetry, heart-of-pine surfaces, and thoughtful design details. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a true retreat, with a walk-in closet, a frameless glass-and-tile shower, and a private screened porch, ideal for morning coffee or unwinding in the evening.

Adding exceptional flexibility, a detached carriage house with a two-car garage provides the perfect opportunity for rental income, guest accommodations, or an au pair suite.
