This home has been fully restored, which includes new paint, plumbing, tankless hot water heater, lighting, Wi-Fi, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances, while keeping the historic charm of its 1927 heritage.

As you enter the front door you will find the living room outfitted with a high quality leather recliner and sofa. Watch your favorite show on the 55" flat screen smart TV. Enjoy “live” TV through our subscription to Hulu and many other Apps with your own personal log in.

The dining room boasts a sparkling new chandelier that adds ambiance to a romantic meal or special gathering. The antique furniture includes a lovely dining table with comfortable seating for 6 . . . a place where memories are made!

The renovated kitchen is complete with an adorable breakfast nook and coffee bar! Dan loves to cook and has outfitted the kitchen with all the necessary items needed to create your culinary delights. The cottage has an under counter water filtration system for the kitchen.

All 3 bedrooms have queen beds, with memory foam mattresses. 2 of the bedrooms have Roku smart TV's and all 3 bedrooms have phone chargers at the bedside and room darkening curtains.

But wait . . . that is not all! Out back, the cottage hides a charming secret garden, that is so private and serene you will never want to leave. It is enclosed by a fence and canopy of trees. On cool evenings, grill out and enjoy time with family and friends under the stars!
