A storybook brick cottage where the garden is as much the home as the walls themselves—crafted for a life that unfolds outdoors as effortlessly as it does within.
Set behind a flagstone courtyard and framed by overgrouted brick, the home introduces itself quietly, then opens into something rare. Positioned on a fully realized .34-acre parcel, the setting offers a kind of immersive privacy—where mature trees, layered plantings, and curated garden rooms create a sense of retreat that feels both intentional and alive.
Inside, original divided-light windows and soft archways define the architecture, bringing a sense of warmth and continuity to the space. A skylight above and expansive corner picture windows anchor the living room, pulling daylight deep into the home while framing the gardens as a living backdrop—blurring the line between interior and exterior in a way that feels effortless and increasingly uncommon. The result is a space that breathes.
The kitchen is thoughtfully scaled and efficient, opening generously into a formal dining area designed for both everyday use and gathering. Casement windows above the sink invite in fresh air and the subtle scent of lilac on the breeze—small moments that elevate the ordinary.
The home’s layout prioritizes what matters. The primary suite is expansive and private, featuring dual access, a walk-in closet, and an updated ensuite with a walk-in shower and refined fixtures. A corner picture window overlooks the garden, with direct access to the covered patio—creating a seamless connection between private retreat and outdoor living. The secondary bedroom mirrors this relationship, with its own garden-facing windows and direct yard access.
Outdoors, the property fully delivers on its promise. A covered breezeway with custom ironwork connects spaces with intention, while the grounds unfold into a layered garden experience—brick planters, raised beds, a rose garden, apple trees, lilac, evergreen structure, and flowering ground cover all working together in a composition that feels both abundant and controlled. A full sprinkler system supports the landscape, allowing it to thrive without demanding constant upkeep.
The covered back patio, finished with tongue-and-groove ceilings and exposed beams, extends the living space through the seasons, with roll-down sunshades adding comfort and flexibility. Every element has been considered—not just for how it looks, but for how it lives.
This is a home for someone who values character, craft, and the quiet luxury of a space that has been deeply cared for. A place where the architecture holds history, and the grounds create a daily experience.
