Listing broker remarks

Warmth, quality, and charm are the cornerstones of this exquisitely polished Craftsman gambrel built on a double lot in Webster Square. Positively LOADED with the perfect balance of period detail and modern convenience! Spend your evenings on the grand porch, sipping lemonade to the sound of crickets and greeting your neighbors as they pass by. Usher your guests inside where you will find bright hardwoods and high ceilings in the open concept living/dining/kitchen, featuring granite counters, tile backsplash, a generous kitchen island, recessed lighting, and stainless steel smart appliances (2023). Full bath and laundry on the 1st floor. A cozy enclosed back porch provides the ideal space for food setup when entertaining outdoors. Take advantage of the generous patio equipped with an included screen structure. Strung between the oaks of the bonus lot is an inviting hammock set in a shaded area with thoughtfully designed plantings to attract pollinators and create a colorful outdoor setting. Retire indoors to the primary bedroom featuring twin double closets and a private 1/2 bath. The remaining two bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath. Practical updates add even more appeal, including an architectural shingle roof (2016 & 2024), oil tank (2019), shed (2019), some Harvey replacement windows (2021), 200 Amp electric service w/ EV charger (2025), and a new driveway (2026).
