Welcome to Bellevue Manor Addition, where timeless charm, thoughtful updates, and enchanting outdoor spaces come together to create a truly special place to call home! This beautiful home offers four spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a main level powder room, and inviting living spaces filled with warmth and character. With extensive improvements inside and out, this home is ready for its next chapter! <br><br> From the moment you arrive, the gorgeous landscaping makes a lasting impression. Japanese maples, flowering plants, arborvitae, and an assortment of trees and shrubs create a picturesque setting. Tiered stone walls, decorative pavers, landscape lighting, and a charming front entrance awning add to the curb appeal. A newer driveway with an additional parking pad provides extra convenience, while updated windows and a steel roof accent above the bay window enhance the home's appeal. <br><br> Inside, freshly painted interiors, beautiful new main level flooring installed in February 2026, updated vents and updated door hardware give the home a fresh, welcoming feel. The spacious living room invites you to settle in beside the cozy gas fireplace, converted from wood burning in January 2026. <br><br> The kitchen blends timeless character with thoughtful improvements, featuring beautiful soapstone countertops, refreshed cabinetry with new doors and drawers, an updated backsplash, charming shiplap ceiling, and under cabinet lighting. A new refrigerator, dishwasher, and gas cooktop were installed in 2024. The kitchen opens to the generous family room, creating a natural gathering place for cooking, conversation, and relaxing together. The fabulous formal dining room is ready for everything from holiday celebrations to intimate dinners with friends. <br><br> Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with an updated ensuite bathroom featuring a new vanity, mirror, lighting, and refreshed plumbing fixtures. Three additional generously sized bedrooms, a full hall bathroom, and a convenient linen closet complete the upper level. Three of the four bedrooms feature two closets, providing abundant storage!

Improvements include a freshly sealed and painted floor in April 2026, an updated laundry area with a new cabinet, and a new washer and dryer.

Lovingly enhanced with beautiful landscaping and inviting outdoor living spaces, this private retreat feels like a little getaway right at home. A charming koi pond brings a peaceful touch, while a pergola with solar lighting creates a delightful spot for relaxing or entertaining. Two decorative arbors, attractive paver walkways, and thoughtfully placed plantings add character throughout.

Additional fencing, including privacy fencing along the east side, enhances the secluded setting.
