Situated on a prominent corner lot, this distinguished residence showcases timeless curb appeal with its classic brick and stucco exterior, slate roof, professional landscaping, fenced rear yard, and highly sought-after two-car detached garage. Step inside the grand foyer, where soaring ceilings and hardwood flooring set the tone for the craftsmanship found throughout.
