Picture-perfect and filled with character, this beautifully updated home offers an irresistible blend of timeless charm, fresh interiors and flexible living space-all complemented by an enchanting backyard retreat. Hardwood floors, crisp white millwork and abundant natural light create a warm, inviting feel throughout. The main level offers comfortable spaces for everyday living and entertaining, while the bright kitchen blends classic style with thoughtful updates and opens naturally to the surrounding living areas. The second floor features charming bedrooms with hardwood floors and a beautifully updated full bath with subway tile, a pedestal sink and classic fixtures. Upstairs, an expansive private primary suite feels like a retreat of its own, with walls of windows, built-in shelving, hardwood floors, an updated bath and generous additional space ideal for a home office, sitting area or dressing space. The finished lower level adds even more versatility with a spacious recreation/family room plus a dedicated laundry area and additional storage. Outside is where this home becomes truly special. Mature trees, lush perennial gardens and winding stone patios create a remarkably private setting with multiple areas for dining, lounging and entertaining. A beautiful stone outdoor fireplace anchors the backyard gathering space, while cafe lights add to the ambiance. A detached garage completes the property. Charming, comfortable and far more spacious than it first appears, this is a home with personality at every turn-and an outdoor setting that feels like a hidden garden escape.
