About 320 E Locust St

Welcome to this stunning and spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home that blends timeless charm with thoughtful updates throughout. A charming brick walkway leads to the inviting front porch-perfect for morning coffee or evening chats-framed by beautifully landscaped grounds and a trellis-accented stone path connecting the side and backyard. Step inside and be captivated by original hardwood floors, elegant crown molding, high ceilings, and detailed woodwork, including built-in cabinetry and stylish lighting. The gas fireplace, flanked by built-in shelving, anchors one of the multiple living areas with rooms galore to use as office space, living areas, reading nooks, and so on! The open layout kitchen is a showstopper-featuring stainless steel appliances, an oversized island with seating for six, and easy flow to the expansive entertainment area added in the home's stunning addition (approx. 8 years ago). This newer space also includes a mudroom with a custom dog bath/mop sink, half bath, office area, and an attached garage. Upstairs, find a beautifully appointed primary suite with laundry conveniently located just off the bedroom. The attic space was converted to a large walk - in closet! Newer windows in all bedrooms enhance comfort and efficiency. Enjoy zoned heating and cooling with two furnaces and three A/C units for year-round comfort. Out back, unwind on the deck or beside the peaceful koi pond-complete with a waterfall and large goldfish-or shoot hoops on the driveway basketball area. A true blend of historic charm and modern convenience, this one-of-a-kind home is ready to welcome its next owner!
