Thoughtfully expanded and beautifully maintained, this Shoalmont gem offers timeless appeal with purposeful updates throughout. Built in the 1950s, the home was reimagined in 2004, transforming a 2-bedroom layout into a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath floor plan with a dedicated office. Great care was taken to preserve the home’s original character—using salvaged oak hardwoods to match the existing floors and integrating the addition seamlessly. The chef’s kitchen is built for real living, anchored by a 6-burner gas cooktop with deluxe Ventahood and warming lamps. Bosch dishwasher, granite countertops, central island, and cork flooring make the space equal parts stylish and practical. Light moves easily through the home, enhanced by high-end double-paned Pella casement windows in every room. Oak hardwoods remain intact, while cork flooring brings comfort to the kitchen, office, and utility spaces. Additional updates include: Dedicated office with French doors, dual custom workstations, cabinetry, built-in file storage, and Cat-5 wiring Custom built-in bookshelves throughout Dedicated hot water heater for the primary bath Refreshed lighting throughout Decorative backyard fountain, bistro lights, and pollinator-friendly garden Smart irrigation system front and back (2023) HVAC and attic insulation added for energy efficiency (2023) Roof replaced (2018) Outside, you’ll find heritage trees, a blooming wisteria arbor in spring, and a landscape designed to invite quiet enjoyment or easy entertaining.
