This 5 bed, 2 bath all-brick home blends timeless character with modern upgrades-gorgeous landscaping, a 2-car garage with alley access, and a brick-paved patio with a fenced yard that makes every outdoor moment feel like a retreat. From the moment you step inside, you'll find yourself saying "Whoa." Bright hardwood floors shine under natural light pouring through oversized windows.
