Description

This is the kind of home that makes people slow down and smile. Welcome to the cutest little Craftsman cottage, where charming curb appeal meets thoughtful, one-of-a-kind outdoor living. The snappy green shutters and inviting Lowcountry-style front porch set the tone—perfect for morning coffee, evening chats, and soaking in the neighborhood vibe. Inside, you’ll love the easy, open floor plan designed for comfortable, everyday living and effortless entertaining. Natural light fills the space, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that instantly feels like home. But the real magic happens out back. Step into a backyard that’s been lovingly created for both beauty and purpose. The extended paver patio is ideal for hosting friends or unwinding under the glow of landscape lighting, all s upported by a full irrigation system to keep everything lush and thriving. Raised garden beds are already producing a bounty of homegrown favorites—broccoli, collards, herbs, tomatoes, peppers, squash, green beans, turnips, and kale—ready for your farm-to-table lifestyle. Two custom arbors with iron gates, handcrafted by the owner, add character and charm while defining the space beautifully. And for hobbyists, gardeners, or anyone needing extra space, the stick-built workshop with power is a rare and valuable bonus. This isn’t just a house—it’s a lifestyle. Cozy, creative, and full of personality, this special cottage is ready for its next chapter.
