A neighborhood topographical high point! Warm, welcoming, and wonderfully efficient, this home blends classic character with smart updates throughout. Step into the sunny family room, where hardwood floors, playful colors, and a corner window deliver natural light all afternoon. The space flows seamlessly into the thoughtfully designed kitchen featuring a brand new convection oven, refrigerator and updated quiet Bosch dishwasher, plus cleverly planned cabinet storage, and a built-in banquette perfect for morning coffee or dinner with friends. A true bonus for cottage living—an actual mudroom with full-size washer and dryer, shelving, and room to drop your gear after wandering the neighborhood.

The full bath offers clean white subway tile, neutral fixtures, and surprisingly great storage. Nest doorbell, camera, thermostat and smoke detector, plus Quantum Fiber installed (940GB). Large, private backyard includes a garden area, nice patio, storage shed and a useful detached garage with opener. Cute. Cozy. Perfectly placed.
