Surrounded by lush front landscaping and featuring a charming brick front porch, the home welcomes you with bright interiors, gorgeous hardwood floors, and thoughtfully designed living spaces. The home has a large two-story rear extension, which includes a finished cellar, expansive rooftop deck, which dramatically increases the home’s size and functionality while preserving its historic charm.

The kitchen opens to a light-filled family room with French doors that lead to a bricked rear patio and beautifully landscaped backyard—perfect for entertaining. A powder room and built-in home office with extensive custom cabinetry complete the main level.

Upstairs, the second floor offers three bedrooms and two full baths, including a spacious primary suite with double vanity, a glass-walled shower with bench, and decorative tile. A washer/dryer closet is conveniently located in the hallway, along with a well-appointed shared bath. The top level includes a fourth bedroom/office with its own full bath, built-in storage, and French doors opening to a private roof deck with panoramic city vistas—including views of the July 4th fireworks!

Additional highlights include abundant built-in storage throughout including a hidden cellar (photo in tour) below the family room accessed by a hatch and additional crawlspace on top floor next to built-in bookshelves, two-zone cooling, covered off-street parking with a garage door and 120/240V EV charger outlet, and a serene backyard retreat.
