Solidly constructed and thoughtfully designed, it combines timeless quality with spaces that adapt to whatever season of life you're in.The welcome begins at the front door, where classic Charleston brick flooring sets the tone for a home rich in charm and substance. In the living room, a stunning fireplace flanked by expansive built-in bookshelves creates the perfect backdrop for everything from holiday gatherings to cozy evenings at home.Just beyond, the screened porch invites you to sip coffee, host friends, or simply enjoy the breeze. The kitchen is both functional and inviting, featuring real wood cabinetry, a peninsula with seating, and a beautiful bay window that fills the breakfast area with natural light. The first floor also includes a formal dining room, laundry room, and powder room. And then comes the surprise. Tucked off the laundry room is an enormous finished bonus space complete with a full bathroom. Need an in-law suite? Done. Dreaming of a media room, game room, office, playroom, or private guest retreat? This space can handle all of the above! Upstairs, the primary suite offers a bright and peaceful retreat with its own private bath. Two additional bedrooms and a full hallway bathroom provide plenty of room for family and guests. But wait--there's more. Above the garage, the oversized FROG is ready to become a fourth bedroom, home gym, Pilates studio, art room, teen hangout, or your personal escape from the rest of the world. And for those who believe you can never have too much storage or workspace, the detached workshop with electricity is a true bonus. Whether you're a craftsman, hobbyist, gardener, or collector, this space is ready to work as hard as you do. This is not a cookie-cutter house. It is a home with character, flexibility, and room to grow--designed for real life and ready for its next chapter.
