Description

Pull up to 223 Johnson Street and feel that quiet sense of “this could be the one.” Step inside, and you’re immediately welcomed by sunlight pouring through oversized windows, dancing across luxury vinyl floors that carry you effortlessly from room to room. On the main floor the aesthetic has been updated to contemporary color schemes of black, gray and white. To your left, the living room invites you to slow down—morning coffee by the window, cozy evenings, and conversations that linger a little longer. Just beyond, the dining space sets the stage for gatherings, from casual weeknight dinners to holiday celebrations filled with laughter. The bright white kitchen feels fresh and ready for its next chapter, with white appliances and easy access to the backyard—perfect for stepping out for fresh air, grilling on summer nights, or simply enjoying the convenience of rear off-street parking. Upstairs, the home becomes your retreat. The primary bedroom offers its own private bath, creating a peaceful place to unwind at the end of the day, while an additional bedroom and a full hall bath provide space for family, guests, or a home office. Then there’s the surprise—head up to the third floor and discover a bonus room or flex space, complete with a hidden attic nook that feels like something out of a storybook. A creative escape, a playroom, or your own tucked-away sanctuary—the choice is yours. At 223 Johnson Street, it’s more than just a house—it’s where everyday moments feel a little more special, and where your next chapter is ready to begin
