The home offers the appeal of an older home with the comfort of modern conveniences. Views of the mountains can be seen from the front and rear of the home.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll appreciate the inviting curb appeal, highlighted by period details and accent features. Enter the expanded living room, which spans the full width of the home. It is filled with natural sunlight from the windows and updated recessed lighting. The engineered flooring and light color palette offer a soft, complementary touch. An electric fireplace provides a maintenance-free, modern focal point and adds ambiance. The room is spacious enough for two conversation pit setups or a secondary desk area.
Adjacent to the living room at the front of the home, you will find a nice-sized office. The office can be accessed from both the living room and the front porch through its own outside entrance. It is a perfect setup for a professional working from home and needing a dedicated area with easy access for couriers.

The generously sized island offers both a dining area and ample workspace for the most diligent of cooks. Plenty of room for people to spread out when you are hosting. A large dining area abuts the kitchen, with ample space for a large dining table or a hybrid dining-and-casual seating area for kitchen gatherings. Just outside of the kitchen you will find the patio area-complete with a gazebo and grilling area. From the patio area, you take a few steps up to the grass covered backyard. The area could easily be fenced in to contain pets. There is a garden shed to store outdoor tools and yard accessories.
A new powder room, added by the current owners, is tucked behind a pocket door between the living room and kitchen. It features a bright palette and modern bath fixtures.
