What truly excites is the extensive care and numerous upgrades that have been applied from top to bottom. It's impossible to list all the new features, but rest assured, everything from the roof to the underground plumbing has been thoroughly addressed. The inventive floor plan creates an ideal setting for entertaining, featuring a gourmet kitchen, a wine bar, and living areas that seamlessly open onto a covered porch, which overlooks the spacious and private backyard. The newly renovated primary bathroom on the upper floor transforms the main bedroom into a regal retreat. Throughout the home, the carefully selected color palette, design elements, built-in features, and window treatments contribute a timeless elegance to this charming cottage. Additional appeal and functionality come from a recently reconstructed storage shed and brick pathways. Offering versatile living spaces and close proximity to parks and the vibrant Village District, this location is truly unmatched.
