About the Listing CMPS01 - 0645772

Tucked privately at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this enchanting cottage feels as though it belongs somewhere far away—or perhaps in another time entirely. Warm, whimsical, and wonderfully unexpected, the home unfolds as a collection of charming spaces layered with character, European influence, and Dilbeck-inspired design elements throughout. Inside, fantastic millwork and decorative geometric wood trim take center stage, joined by original steel casement windows, exposed beams, richly toned wood paneling, scalloped built-ins, and beautifully preserved original details. There is a romantic, almost storybook quality to the architecture—a sense of craftsmanship and playfulness that recalls the work of architect Charles Dilbeck. Original bathrooms remain delightfully intact, adding another layer of charm and history. Nothing here feels overly polished or prescribed. Instead, the house possesses the kind of patina, warmth, and personality that can only be collected over time. Private, enchanting, and completely its own, it feels less like a house and more like a warm little world at the end of the road, waiting for its next chapter.
