Offering 1,452 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this inviting one-story home features 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and an attached 2-car garage. From its cozy front porch and distinctive gazebo-inspired exterior to its open living areas and split gathering spaces, this classic Garlinghouse design delivers comfort, style, and everyday practicality for families of every stage of life.
The exterior immediately stands apart with a welcoming covered front porch and a unique gazebo-inspired architectural feature that gives the home its own distinctive personality.

The breakfast area enjoys views toward the front porch, creating a cheerful place to begin each day while allowing natural light to fill the heart of the home. Throughout the living spaces, thoughtful planning creates a comfortable balance between openness and traditional room definition.
The kitchen is designed for both convenience and efficiency. A peninsula counter expands the available workspace while providing casual seating for family members and guests. A built-in pantry offers valuable storage, while a convenient pass-through window keeps the kitchen connected to the great room, making it easy to serve meals while remaining part of every conversation.
The great room and formal dining room share a beautiful two-sided fireplace that creates warmth, architectural character, and an inviting atmosphere throughout both spaces. Whether entertaining guests, enjoying holiday dinners, or spending a quiet evening with family, this shared fireplace serves as a striking focal point while adding comfort to the home's primary gathering areas.
All three bedrooms are thoughtfully grouped together on one side of the home, creating a private bedroom wing separated from the active living spaces. The owner's suite provides a peaceful retreat complete with a spacious walk-in closet and a luxurious ensuite bathroom featuring a relaxing whirlpool tub that offers the perfect place to unwind after a busy day.
Bedrooms two and three provide comfortable accommodations for children, overnight guests, or flexible use as a home office or hobby room. A conveniently located full bathroom serves both secondary bedrooms while supporting the changing needs of growing families.
The attached 2-car garage provides secure parking along with valuable storage for tools, lawn equipment, bicycles, and seasonal belongings. Combined with the home's efficient one-story layout, it enhances both convenience and long-term livability while preserving the home's attractive exterior appearance.
