Add in a hard-to-find 2-car garage and a fully fenced yard, and you have a home that truly stands apart in today's market.From the moment you arrive, the lush landscaping, mature trees, and curated gardens featuring Japanese maples and perennial plantings create an inviting first impression. Step through the front door -- framed by a gorgeous stained glass transom window -- into a welcoming foyer with rich hardwood floors and classic stair rail detailing that set the tone for everything that follows.The main living area flows effortlessly from a cozy sitting room anchored by a striking shiplap fireplace wall to a generous open-concept family room and chef's kitchen designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home, showcasing white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large center island with seating, a commercial-style pull-down faucet, gas range, stainless steel appliances, and a soft gray subway tile backsplash. The adjacent dining area is bathed in natural light from oversized windows and finished with elegant crown molding and a statement sputnik chandelier -- a perfect spot for morning coffee or dinner with friends.A thoughtfully designed flex space off the main living area serves beautifully as a home office or mudroom, complete with built-in cabinetry, a dedicated workspace, and direct access to the backyard. Custom floating shelves with a curated gallery wall add warmth and personality to the space.Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is a true retreat, offering plush carpet, dual windows framing peaceful treetop views, crown molding, and a large walk-in closet with built-in organization. The spa-inspired primary bath features a soaking tub surround in marble-look tile, a separate walk-in shower with decorative mosaic accent tile, dual vanities with quartz countertops, and elegant brushed nickel fixtures throughout. Additional bedrooms are generously sized and full of natural light, with plush carpet and flexible layouts perfect for children, guests, or a nursery. A charming loft-style bonus nook on the upper level is ideal as a reading corner, homework station, or creative space. Upstairs laundry adds the everyday convenience today's buyers expect.Outside, your fully fenced private backyard sanctuary awaits. A gravel fire pit patio encircled by Adirondack chairs, mature trees, Japanese maples, and lush greenery creates the perfect setting for relaxed evenings and weekend gatherings. Whether you're letting kids and pets roam freely or simply enjoying the privacy, the fully fenced yard delivers beauty and peace of mind in equal measure.
