Property Description

Welcome to a beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated home offering 3 bedrooms plus an office and 2½ baths with two features that are particularly unusual for the area: a newly added first-floor primary suite and a family room addition that transformed the home's everyday living space. The first-floor primary suite is a private retreat with hardwood floors, generous walk-in closet, and a well-appointed en-suite bath with double granite vanity and walk-in shower. The light-filled family room flows seamlessly from the renovated kitchen and features hardwood floors, a beverage bar and Wine Enthusiast refrigerator, leading to the paver patio and beautifully landscaped rear yard. The kitchen offers granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, two generous pantries, a 5-burner gas range, stainless appliances and a peninsula with seating. The gracious living room has hardwood floors and gas-log fireplace with handsome millwork mantel with door leading out to the wonderful screened porch. The charming office/den offers a Dutch door to the porch as well, making it an ideal home office. The dining room opens to the kitchen/family space and gives the house great circular flow. A powder room and spacious laundry/mechanical room complete the first floor. Upstairs are two additional large bedrooms with hardwood floors, excellent closet space, plus a renovated hall bath. Thoughtful improvements include replacement windows (2017), refinished hardwoods, updated attic insulation, crawl-space improvements, gutter guards and a new gas water heater (2026). Outside, mature privacy hedges, established irrigated lawns, professional landscaping, a pretty arbor with climbing rose, paver patio and detached shed create inviting private spaces. An especially desirable feature is the unusual two-car off-street parking area, paved and cobblestone-lined, conveniently located beside the side entry. Enjoy the best location with the neighborhood park next door and behind the house. The Libbie & Grove shopping district is a short walk away.
