Property Description

Ultra-Private Fenced Yard & Flexible 3-Bedroom Layout in St. Johns. Tucked behind a fully fenced entry path, this St. Johns gem offers rare privacy and undeniable character. The bright and open main floor flows easily between the living and dining areas, with a charming office nook featuring custom built-ins. French doors open directly to the backyard, creating effortless indoor-outdoor living. Two comfortable bedrooms and a full bath complete this inviting level. Downstairs, the finished lower level features an additional bedroom with a private entrance, full bath, large closet, and a compact flex area—ideal for a home office, craft space, or extra storage. With its layout and plumbing access, the space offers potential for a kitchenette, making it a great candidate for an ADU-style suite or private guest quarters. A spacious utility room adds even more versatility, offering ample storage for bikes, gear, or household items.The backyard hideaway is a true escape — filled with mature landscaping, raised garden beds, and thoughtful touches like a handmade garden fence and a whimsical tree-stump “throne” tucked among the greenery. Gather friends around the in-ground fire pit or craft wood-fired creations in the impressive stone pizza oven. The pull-through garage with dual doors opens to the backyard for flexible use as party space, hobby workshop, or additional parking.Recent updates include a new stainless steel refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave (2025), new gas water heater (2023), Marmoleum basement flooring (2023), new basement steps and railings, and a new water service line and meter (2024). Situated on a quiet corner lot close to parks, shops, and dining, this home blends comfort, flexibility, and the kind of charm you can’t manufacture. [Home Energy Score = 6.
