Why this home stands out

Whole Foods, Target, and a string of restaurants sit under half a mile away, yet the street itself feels removed from the commercial bustle. Four bedrooms give you real flexibility — home office, guest room, nursery — without the tradeoffs that come with newer, smaller builds.
