There was a time when front porches were the heart of the home. Where the real living happened––not behind tall fences or tucked behind double doors, but right out in the open, where neighbors waved without hesitation and kids grew up not just watched over, but known. Where a porch swing wasn’t just decor, but a rhythm of daily life. You could hear the clink of iced lemonade glasses and the low hum of conversation in the salty summer air.
This is that home. This Sugarhouse bungalow brings back everything we miss about connected living. The kind of place where the front porch still matters—swing and all. Inside, the living room is anchored by a fireplace that invites quiet evenings and shared stories. A wide arch guides you from the warm, welcoming guest space into the family area. Cozy nooks throughout cradle plants, books, and people alike. The home's been updated without losing its roots, or its charm.
Out back, you'll find a rare surprise for the area—a deep, double lot with an edible garden already rooted and thriving. A two-car detached garage stands ready, and there's space enough to dream of an ADU, if you so desire. Whether it’s morning coffee out front or backyard dinners under the stars, this home was built for gathering—past, present, and future.
I took a walk down this very street the other evening with my own four-leggeds in tow. I kid you not, porch lights glowed, rocking chairs gently swayed, and neighbors—real ones—smiled and waved. For a moment, I felt like I’d stepped into a Norman Rockwell painting. Welcome to the kind of place that offers historic enchantment. And belonging.
