The propertu features four bedrooms and two and a half baths across approximately 1,400 square feet , thoughtfully updated to blend contemporary finishes with the warmth and character of the original home. The main level offers a welcoming living room with fireplace, a spacious dining area, and a well-appointed kitchen that opens seamlessly to the rear outdoor spaces—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
