About This Home

With its storybook curb appeal, rocking front porch, and undeniable charm, this Biltmore Park cottage delivers sophistication and effortless livability in 2,020 square feet. Gorgeous hardwood floors, a soothing color palette, plantation shutters, and designer finishes create an ambiance fit for House Beautiful. Spacious kitchen with island and granite countertops, gas fireplace in the great room, and a rare main-level primary suite with walk-in closet, double vanity, tiled soaking tub, and separate shower, plus main-level laundry with nearly-new Bosch W/D and utility sink. Upstairs, two bright bedrooms share a lovely bath and a quaint balcony. Sunny deck framed by mature hardwoods, level yard with purple rhododendrons, detached two-car garage with breezeway. New in 2024: two heat pumps, storm doors, and fans. Steps to the greenway, upscale shopping, dining, fitness, the seasonal farmer's market, and the community pool just down the street. Homes this special don't last!
