Timeless charm meets modern living in this enchanting two-story Lakewood cottage, tucked away amidst lush landscaping and towering trees. From the moment you step onto the oversized covered front porch and pass through the original leaded glass door, you’ll feel the warmth and character that define this home. Inside, rich wood floors and a cozy wood-burning fireplace (now with updated gas logs) create a welcoming ambiance in the formal living spaces. Ideal floorplan features two distinct living areas, with a spacious family room with custom built-ins for relaxation and organization. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level, while three additional bedrooms await upstairs. Meticulously updated over the years, this home strikes the perfect balance between historic charm and modern convenience. A 2018 renovation brought a new half bath, an additional bedroom, and an updated primary suite complete with refreshed plumbing and electrical systems. Most recently, in 2024, the kitchen and utility-flex room underwent a stunning transformation with new windows, high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, La Perla quartzite countertops and a fresh, functional layout. The backyard was also completely reimagined, featuring a large screened-in porch, turf, and updated landscaping to create an inviting outdoor retreat. Located in the heart of Lakewood, this one-of-a-kind cottage offers character, comfort, and convenience in equal measure. It’s more than a house—it’s the perfect place to call home.
