Step inside to a warm, private living room featuring a classic wood-burning fireplace. To the left, an open-concept kitchen boasts a center island, high-end appliances, and a natural flow into the dining area. Four-panel, floor-to-ceiling patio doors create a dramatic connection to the outdoors, opening to a fully level yard perfect for gatherings of all ages. The outdoor space is a true sanctuary, featuring mature trees, a flower-covered trellis, herb garden, fire pit lounge area, an extended deck, and a shade-covered awning your own private oasis in the city. The upper level offers two bedrooms, including one ensuite, a second full bath, and a convenient laundry closet.
