Active1 / 35Welcome to a truly special home where charm, character, and thoughtful updates come together. Nestled in the coveted Golden Acres neighborhood on a fabulous half-acre, flat lot. It feels like something straight out of a storybook. From the moment you arrive, you will appreciate the care that has gone into this home. The sellers have thoughtfully updated the property while preserving the original character. Enter through a quaint sunroom, that welcomes you into the expansive living room featuring a beautiful fireplace. The adjoining dining room is filled with charm and showcases original built-ins. The custom kitchen features new cabinetry, new flooring, and a $5,000 Smeg gas range. A convenient mudroom provides easy access to the backyard and leads to a fabulous patio. The main level offers two bedrooms and a beautifully renovated full bathroom, while the second level provides a spacious private bedroom complete with its own attached bathroom and cedar closet. The versatile upper level offers multiple possibilities, allowing you to create a space that perfectly fits your lifestyle. And then comes the backyard—truly a destination of its own. Set on a gorgeous, private and level half-acre, the grounds are surrounded by lush landscaping, established garden beds, a soaker pool, and water feature. Tucked among it all is the most adorable little wood cabin, complete with its own wood-burning stove and chimney, plus an AC unit. It is the perfect escape for a creative studio, hobby space, home office, or simply a cozy retreat. A separate shed provides additional storage. The stone basement offers laundry and an abundance of unfinished space with endless potential. Meticulously maintained and exceptionally built, this home offers something that is increasingly hard to find: timeless character paired with thoughtful modern updates and an incredible piece of land. Every corner tells a story, and every space offers its own special touch. Close to Drumm Farm Golf Club.
