Meticulous 1945 bungalow that lives like a page from a design magazine - perfectly sized, beautifully kept, and thoughtfully updated throughout. A gorgeous lilac and a stellar crabapple frame the approach, with hollyhocks, roses, hydrangeas, and raspberries ringing the house. Inside, a warm wood ceiling and pine floors with the rich patina of age set a cozy, welcoming tone, and top-down/bottom-up blinds fill the living room with light while keeping your privacy. The efficient kitchen features newer cabinetry, updated flooring, a gas range, dishwasher, and a sink beneath a window, with a dining nook framing views of the gazebo and a backyard pollinator garden alive with bee balm, daisies, delphinium, and sunflowers alongside tomatoes and herbs. The main-level bedroom offers built-in shelving, room for a queen, and a bonus closet, served by a nicely redone bath with corner shower. A glassed-in, insulated back porch room with its own pet door flexes as storage, a sitting room, or hobby space. Downstairs is a true retreat: a quiet basement bedroom with egress window, wood beams, and a generously sized closet, plus a full bath that would be at home in a boutique hotel. Laundry area, right-sized water heater, forced-air gas furnace, and an updated electrical panel with Romex wiring round out a dry, fresh-smelling basement on a poured concrete foundation - the expensive updates are done. Detached garage, easy-care lot, and a location convenient to everything Ashland offers. Just the right size, with nothing wasted.
