Virtual Tour
There are houses you tour, and then there are houses that seem to be waiting for you. Beyond a garden gate, a flagstone path winds gently forward. Ivy curls itself lovingly around the stair rails, as if it has been tending this place for decades—perhaps it has. Beautiful trees stand as quiet guardians, filtering light into something almost enchanted. Before you even reach the front door, two generous patios invite you to pause, to sit, to listen and to entertain! Built in 1930, the home carries its age with quiet confidence. Brick and wood meet in a way that feels both sturdy and romantic, as though crafted in an era when homes were meant to last—and to matter. Architectural details draw your eye from room to room, culminating in a stone fireplace that feels like a centerpiece for life itself. You can almost picture it: a fire crackling, light flickering, smoke curling up through the chimney as evening settles in. The light in the kitchen dances across new countertops and stainless appliances. At the sink, a window frames a calming view that makes even the simplest tasks feel contemplative. A built-in banquette creates a cozy breakfast nook—perfect for slow mornings and strong coffee. On the main level, life unfolds with ease: a full bath and laundry offer practicality, while the primary bedroom feels like a retreat within the retreat. Built-in closets add charm and function, but it’s the window seat that steals the moment—a place made for daydreaming, reading, or simply watching the light shift through the trees. Upstairs, the story turns whimsical. An office nook tucked beneath attic ceilings feels like a hidden creative perch, while the second bedroom leans fully into its fairytale charm. Dormer windows invite in soft light, another window seat beckons, and built-in bookcases stand ready for well-loved stories. Downstairs, the possibilities widen. A spacious room adapts to whatever chapter comes next—family room, guest quarters, or an expansive home office. French doors open outward to a patio and another full bath completes the space, making it as functional as it is flexible. And just beyond, the hillside offers steps leading up to an outdoor seating area—another vantage point to take in the quiet magic of the surroundings. This is not just a house; it’s a setting. A place that feels tucked away from the world, yet deeply connected to something timeless and its only minutes to coffee, beer with friends, great farmer’s market and Thornhill Elementary!
