Cape Cod Elegance Reimagined in Willow Glen

In the heart of Willow Glen stands a Cape Cod jewel: graceful, curated, and uniquely its own. Behind a storybook facade framed with shutters, planter boxes, and flowering vines lies a home that has been reimagined from top to bottom with over $400,000 in renovations and custom upgrades. 

A Courtyard of Enchantment

Approach through the European fan-patterned walkway, past sculpted boxwoods and cascading blooms, and arrive at a private courtyard alive with artistry: an imported Italian tiered fountain, matching stone lions, hand-crafted urns, and a custom stone bench illuminated at night. Framed by twin Italian cypress, wisteria-draped trellises, and a hedge of laurel enclosing the garden. Bougainvillea climbs with bright flourish, while star jasmine perfumes the air. Lavender, hydrangea, and camellia roses (in shades of pink, red, and white) mingle with white potato vine and iceberg rose trees to create a layered palette of color and fragrance. Arbors, trellises frame the space, while a rustic mahogany entry door, fluted pilasters, and pediment detailing set a tone of timeless elegance.

Inspired Interiors

Inside, the home unfolds in layers of warmth and refinement. Dual-and triple-tone professional painting gives depth and character to every room. The open-concept kitchen and family room are a showpiece, featuring restored slate flooring, expanded cabinetry with built-in china display and custom lighting, precision rollout shelving, new backsplash, bronze fixtures, and a full-home water treatment and softener system. Every cabinet has been rethought for function and beauty. The living and dining rooms glow with restored original 1948 hardwoods, new chandeliers, and cleverly added storage, while a reading room invites retreat beneath a wall-length library and its own chandelier.

Luxurious Private Spaces

The primary suite is a sanctuary: custom closets with crown moldings and columns, a dedicated shoe wardrobe, a custom entertainment wall with stone fireplace, and French doors that open to a serene courtyard with shaded trellis. The spa-inspired bath features a jetted Jacuzzi tub with LED lighting, rainforest shower with lit niches and corner shelving, golden fixtures, and a remote-controlled bidet vanity. A fully rebuilt laundry wing offers porcelain tile, recessed lighting, new plumbing, pocket doors, and a full-capacity washer/dryer. Upstairs, new mahogany and gym-grade hardwood flooring, a custom craft room ladder and shelving, and refreshed bathrooms carry the theme of thoughtful living.

Crafted for Comfort

Behind the beauty is substance: Automated European roller shutters for efficiency and privacy. New tankless water heater with expanded electrical panel. Whole-home water filtration and softening system. Crawlspace encapsulation and insulation upgrades. New fencing, gates, and driveway expansion for ease and security.

Outdoor Living at Its Best

The backyard is designed for entertaining: pergola-covered lounge with privacy trellis and clear roofing, a fire pit with electric shades, outdoor BBQ and Big Green Egg. The low-maintenance garden is accented by custom stonework, decorative planters, and dual sheds for storage. Truly an amazing curated garden retreat. Pygmy date palms, a regal queen palm, and magnolia trees lend height and grace, while fiery red and Tuscarora crepe myrtles bring seasonal brilliance. Dahlias and tea roses brighten garden beds alongside purple agapanthus and angel-white oleander. A Chinese elm casts shade across seating areas. Evenings here are illuminated by soft landscape lighting, transforming the gardens into a stage of color and texture year-round.

This is a home of character, designed with intention. A residence shaped by vision, not by formula. It is a curated home of character, lovingly crafted with European influence, modern efficiency, and timeless design. Step outside your door and onto the newly reimagined Three Creeks Trail, a pathway to nature and community. Just a short stroll to Willow Glen’s vibrant Downtown Avenue, yet worlds apart in inspiration.

*** POSSBLE RARE FINANCING OPPORTUNITY. This home offers a rare financing advantage with a partially VA-financed loan that may be assumable. VA loans are generally assumable, meaning a qualified buyer (veteran or civilian) may apply to assume the existing mortgage balance, interest rate, and repayment terms, subject to approval by the loan servicer and the Department of Veterans Affairs. Qualified buyers could step into the existing VA loan and secure its favorable interest rate and terms. That means the chance to save on monthly payments compared to today’s higher market rates. The assuming party must meet income, credit, and other qualification requirements. Any additional financing outside of the VA loan is not assumable. Buyers are encouraged to conduct their own due diligence with the lender regarding assumability and qualification requirements. Per the Seller, they stated they have "a 2.25% assumable loan on $875,000." The Listing Agent/Broker has not verified this information. ***
