Nestled under a gorgeous canopy of oaks this garden bungalow with its storybook charm holds the secret to "That Cottage-Core Life". From the curved walkway to the oh-so-adorable front porch you will know you are home. Inside you'll love the warm and cozy remodeled spaces. Inside, cozy meets clever. The remodeled kitchen is a chef’s dream with walnut and granite countertops, a sink overlooking the front garden, and a pantry wall packed with storage solution. There is more:pull-out spice racks, deep divided drawers, an appliance garage, even hidden under-cabinet plugs. An island anchors the space and is perfect to connect with your guest. The living room is gracious in size, with gleaming hardwoods and a sleek gas fireplace as its centerpiece. A French door leads to a breezy screened porch—your new favorite spot for morning coffee or evening cocktails. The thoughtful floor plan tucks away a private guest bedroom and a freshly redone hall bath with silver travertine floors and open shelving. The front load washer and dryer are tucked away with additional storage behind barn doors. The primary suite, though, is where the magic happens: vaulted ceilings, a wall of built-ins for effortless organization, and a spa-inspired ensuite with every luxury—double vanity, water closet, soaking tub, wet room, and even heated floors. Step out back and the magic continues. A private landscaped yard with flat sunny lawn for your BFF - Fido, composite deck, flagstone patio, fire pit, and lush plantings make outdoor living effortless. Every upgrade here whispers “forever home”: new windows and doors (with remote-controlled shades!), tankless water heater, crawlspace dehumidifier, Hardiplank siding, pocket doors, and stained-in-place hardwoods. Even the storage room is charmingly tucked to the side. This isn’t just a house—it’s a little slice of cottage life, right in the heart of Merry Oaks. Minutes to Midwood.
