Property Description

Nestled on a wide neighborhood street a short distance from the square down town, this traditional 2-story home exudes classic charm and timeless appeal. With 1,914 square feet of living space on a generous .56-acre lot, this property offers a perfect blend of spaciousness and character. Walk up the stone steps and through the front door to be greeted by original hardwood floors. The spacious living room features high, beamed ceilings with a beautiful wood burning fireplace surrounded by native stone with wide locally sourced cedar mantle. The stones used for the fireplace were collected from the yard to bring the outside in and create unity from the exterior to the interior. The home is full of large windows with new custom shades, pouring in natural light from both the front and back yards. The dining room is found to your right and flows directly into the kitchen for easy entertaining. Conveniently located just beyond the kitchen and inside the back door is the mudroom with a washer and dryer that can be found behind louvered doors. You will also find the half bath and pantry as you move from the kitchen into the living room. Before you head upstairs, travel through the living room and step out to the double entry screened porch to enjoy the sights and sounds created by the many varieties of birds, butterflies, and wildlife that visit the pollinator gardens planted around the property to attract, feed and welcome them. Upstairs there are 4 spacious bedrooms and lots of storage, a full bath and access to the roof through a door from a guest bedroom where you can watch the sunrise over the back yard, sunset over the front and stargaze at night. Need more storage? No problem! Pull down the stairs leading to the attic. Extra insulation was added between the living space and attic floor to keep your heating and cooling costs down and allow you to use the entire attic to keep any items you may not use every day. A thermostatically controlled attic vent fan keeps hot air flowing out of the attic and thereas a whole house attic fan to bring in then fresh spring and fall air. These and the numerous ceiling fans allowed the current owners to keep their utility bills around $250 a month. This comfortable house sits up on a hill with a commanding view of the neighborhood below with plantings that screen you from the busy world around you. Trees line the street and the driveway winds up and around to the carport with extra parking to the sides and in the back. Thereas privacy in both the front lawn and fenced back yard. Exposed boulders offer a unique accent on this gentle hillside. Trees, bushes, and flowers greet you everywhere you look as if you've discovered a secret garden right at the heart of our fair city.
