The residence itself is a masterful blend of classic farmhouse character and sophisticated modern luxury. Inside, the open floor plan is punctuated by high ceilings and a true chef's kitchen, complete with a prep sink, expansive counter seating, and two full-size refrigerators, making it the ultimate setting for hosting grand celebrations.The primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, boasting a luxury spa-inspired shower, a deep standalone soaking tub, and a generously-sized closet featuring a custom organization system. Outside, the rear grounds feature a sprawling grassy lawn perfect for outdoor relaxation, while the front of the home is defined by a magnificent 40-foot porch. This expansive space offers the perfect vantage point to enjoy the parade or simply unwind while taking in the views of the beautiful tree-lined street.

This ADU features a designer kitchen, its own washer/dryer, and a 3/4 bathroom, providing an ideal space for a guest, a dedicated home office, or a multipurpose room or entertaining space.
