Don’t let its modest appearance deceive you — this charming two-bedroom bungalow contains all the amenities desired by today’s family. Entry is through a covered porch, which will provide protection from inclement weather. In the foyer, above the convenient coat closet, is a display space for collectibles. The spacious, well-lit great room features a fireplace and a vaulted ceiling, which extends over the kitchen. Separated from the great room by an island with a raised eating bar, the open-plan kitchen will allow the cook to keep tabs on activities nearby. A U-shaped counter configuration will save steps, and there’s a generous pantry. The dining area, located in a deep bay off the great room, features a window seat that overlooks the back garden and opens on to a covered deck, perfect for al fresco dining in warm weather. Near the kitchen, and surrounded by an L-shaped covered porch, is a multi-purpose room that could see service as a den, home office or formal dining room. The roomy master suite, which also features a window seat, contains a walk-in closet, as well as an ensuite with a soaker tub and a separate shower stall. Nearby, the second bedroom enjoys its own bathroom, with a linen closet situated inside it. The laundry room has access to the double garage, which is spacious enough for a workbench or fitness area. The garage is situated so that the garage doors do not face the street. Instead, passers-by will see a partially mullioned window with an attractive awning. On the exterior, finishes include painted trim, river-rock accents and shingled siding, with larger shingles accentuating the gables. This home, with nine-foot ceilings throughout, measures 49 feet wide and 69 feet, six inches deep, for a total of 1,706 square feet. There is no basement.
