Unique architectural details, including curved walls and distinct room angles, make this home truly one-of-a-kind.The main living areas offer abundant natural light and serene views of the landscaped grounds. The hearth room features tall windows, a wood-burning fireplace with brick & copper surround, & a sliding door that opens to a circular patio--perfect for outdoor entertaining. The adjacent family room is equally striking with its white stone fireplace, angled ceiling with beams, and dramatic windows.Enjoy peaceful mornings in the garden room, complete with views of a water fountain and lush plantings. A breezeway connects the kitchen and garage, adding both charm and functionality. Tucked away in its own private wing, the master suite offers a cozy retreat with multiple closets and the third fireplace, providing warmth & charm.Lovingly owned by the same family for 42 years, this home is surrounded by friendly neighbors on a quiet, tree-lined street. The expansive corner lot presents endless possibilities- entertaining, expansion, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy it affords.
