Property Description

Sunrise from the front porch. Sunset from the wraparound back deck. This light-filled, Scandinavian-inspired residence in the South End offers a rare sense of calm & privacy in the heart of the city anchored by an expansive backyard retreat that feels worlds away. A truly exquisite modern executive home, defined by clean lines, a refined neutral palette, and exceptional curb appeal is move-in ready, with nothing left to do but enjoy. Inside, the main level invites you in with a comfortable living room with a cozy fireplace, a formal dining room made for long dinners with family and friends, and a beautifully designed kitchen with a center island and ample cabinetry the natural gathering spot of the home. A servery with wet bar, a private office, and a 2pc bath round out the space with thoughtful ease. Step out from the dining room and the backyard opens up like a hidden sanctuary fenced, wooded, and wonderfully private. It's the kind of outdoor space where mornings start slow and summer evenings linger long after sunset.Upstairs, 3 bdrms include a tranquil primary suite with a walk-in dressing room — complete with custom built-ins — and a spa-like four-piece ensuite featuring a deep soaker tub and rainfall shower. A true retreat at the end of the day.The fully finished lower level adds even more room to live and grow, with a spacious recreation room, bedroom, a 3pc bath, and dedicated storage and utility areas. A home where everyday moments feel a little more special & where family life has all the room it needs to unfold.
