01About this home

Welcome to this beautifully crafted, all-brick custom ranch, thoughtfully designed and perfectly situated on a large, fully fenced lot along a quiet, tree-lined street. This well-built home showcases timeless quality and comfort, beginning with a sun-filled living room featuring a charming bay window and cozy fireplace. The spacious eat-in kitchen offers an abundance of cabinetry, custom built-ins, an ironing board closet, and a generous sized breakfast area, while the formal dining room provides the perfect setting for gatherings and family meals. A desirable sunroom with a wall of windows overlooks the lushly landscaped yard, complete with mature plantings, fruit trees, a large deck, and a paver patio-ideal for relaxing or entertaining. The enclosed back porch has been thoughtfully converted into a convenient main-level laundry room with sink. The main level features three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a master suite with a private bath and seated shower, as well as a hall bath with double vanity and several cedar-lined closets throughout. The finished basement expands the living space with a large family room, office with Murphy bed, additional bedroom, second laundry area, and ample storage, including a dedicated space perfect for a wine cellar or canned goods. Completing this exceptional property is a two-car attached garage and an impressive 20x24 outbuilding with overhead door, electric, and a full lofted second level-ideal for a contractor, mechanic, or hobbyist. Additional updates include a furnace (2018) and windows (2010), making this home a rare combination of craftsmanship, space, and versatility.
