Morning light pours through large windows, spilling across high ceilings and filling every corner of this French Mediterranean home with warmth. The house unfolds easily and gracefully,three bedrooms, two full baths, and a powder room,each space designed to feel open, calm, and livable. The heart of the home is a great room where conversations stretch late into the evening, doors open wide, and the indoors drifts naturally outside. The yard is just right: intimate enough for candlelit dinners and weekend gatherings, yet effortless to maintain, leaving more time to enjoy it rather than tend to it. The primary suite feels like a quiet retreat, with a walk-in closet and a beautifully updated en-suite bath. Thoughtfully renovated bathrooms throughout bring comfort and ease, while a foundation retrofit with I-beams adds the kind of confidence you don’t see, but feel. Beyond the front door, life spills into the neighborhood. Neighbors greet one another by name. Dogs are walked at dusk. Children ride their bikes freely from house to house. Families linger over progressive dinners, brought together by shared schools, shared meals, and the easy rhythm of a place where people truly know one another.
