If you’ve been searching for that elusive mix of classic character and move-in-ready convenience, this four-bedroom, 2.5-bath home delivers in a big way. The main level feels bright and airy, with an open layout that flows naturally from the living area into the dining space. Hardwood floors run throughout, complemented by recessed lighting and large windows that invite plenty of natural light. The kitchen is a standout, featuring sleek countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a peninsula island that’s perfect for a quick breakfast or hosting friends while you cook. Upstairs, the layout is incredibly functional with four spacious bedrooms. The primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with its own private full bath. Need extra space?
