Property Description
With 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a handcrafted bar, custom woodwork, and a backyard built for weekends that stretch long into the night, this house is more than square footage — it's freedom, nostalgia, rhythm. A semi-charmed kind of life, one where joy doesn't knock, it just walks in.
From the moment you step inside, the sun takes over — soft and real, casting shadows on the walls and warmth across the floors. The open layout breathes. Light bounces. Time slows. And you're reminded what it feels like to enjoy living in your home.
The living room invites you to stay awhile, to turn up the volume and let the day fall off your shoulders. The handcrafted bar in the corner? It's not just for drinks — it's for stories. For beginnings. For nights that don't have to end at midnight.
The kitchen opens up just enough to host and hide, depending on your mood. The dining space could hold brunch or a packed house for dinner. And the woodwork throughout the home tells a story that factory finishes never could - someone cared here.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom faces the light. The kind that finds you before your alarm, the kind that whispers instead of shouts. You wake up here with more peace than pressure. The other three bedrooms leave space for what's next — guests, work, art, play, reinvention.
And then there's the backyard.
''I want something else / To get me through this.''
This is it. This yard is what gets you through. With its covered gazebo, shed, and just the right amount of space to stretch out or pull in close. You could host 20 people back here or sit alone with a guitar and a glass of something cold. Either way, it feels like yours and it's loved and it's ready.
You're steps from North Hills, from sidewalk cafes and after-dinner walks, from parks and late-morning coffee runs. You can bike to your favorite place and walk home from the one you just discovered. Here, you're close to everything but never crowded. It's the sweet spot — like that part in a song you wait for, and then replay again and again.
Some houses are made for hosting. Some are made for healing. This one was made for both. And when you step inside, you'll feel it — that lyric of a life just waiting to begin again.
So if you're the type to live with the windows down, music up, and sunlight on your walls... you just might have found home.
