I recently listed this perfect, move in ready with water views home. Below is the property description:

Nestled in a quaint little town, there stands a lovingly restored and meticulously maintained vintage Arts and Crafts home offering timeless charm. With its double door grand entry, you will be transported to a bygone era, where craftsmanship and attention to detail were revered. Throughout the house, pocket and French doors add a touch of elegance, and the delightful built-ins offer both functionality, charm, and display space for treasured heirlooms and cherished collections. Tasteful updates include the kitchen’s solid cherry wood cabinets, SS appliances, Corian counters that sparkle like jewels, and recessed LED lighting throughout that cast a soft glow over the rich parquet wood floors, complementing the classic design. The lower level of the house had been thoughtfully designed to include a private office space and a walkout to the private yard. Up on the third floor, a walk-up attic had been lovingly transformed into additional living space making room for a 4th bedroom plus an office or play area. The lower level has a designated office space for those needed quiet time zoom calls too but perhaps one of the most enchanting features of the house is the Fir wood wrap-around covered porch. Here, with a morning cup of coffee or later with a glass of vino, you will enjoy the soft breeze and the breathtaking sunset views over the sparkling waters nearby.
