This one-of-a-kind home blends timeless character with thoughtful upgrades, offering indoor-outdoor living in a peaceful, community-centered setting.

Fresh paint throughout enhances every room, and a large shed plus off-street parking in the driveway add everyday convenience. The professionally landscaped backyard is a true gardener’s paradise. Over 100 native and perennial plants have been lovingly added by the current owners, creating a certified butterfly and native plant garden that supports a thriving ecosystem of butterflies, birds, and squirrels. This drought- and deer-resistant landscape features perennial lavender, fig and persimmon trees, Japanese cherry and maple trees, and colorful blooms through three seasons. Sustainability is at the heart of this home’s story.
