Charming cottage-style brick and stone home featuring a La Mantia-built, two-story rear addition with low-maintenance vinyl siding. Filled with natural light, this warm and inviting home blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Hardwood floors, over-sized base moldings, six-panel doors and Pella divided-light windows add classic appeal throughout. The welcoming foyer offers a guest closet and newer leaded-glass front door, opening to a spacious formal living room with a large picture window overlooking the tree-lined street and a cozy gas-log fireplace with brick surround. The adjoining dining room flows effortlessly into the beautifully updated eat-in kitchen through a custom arched doorway. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the kitchen features rich cherry cabinetry, gorgeous stone countertops, stainless steel appliances and an over-sized center island with raised breakfast bar seating. The kitchen opens seamlessly to the sought-after rear family room, highlighted by French doors leading to the backyard patio.

The spacious primary bedroom features a vaulted ceiling, charming built-in window bench, walk-in closet, and a luxurious ensuite bath with heated floors, dual vanities, soaking tub and a separate shower. Two additional main-floor bedrooms and an updated hall bath with heated floors complete the interior.
