2762 Arbor Avenue SE

There’s something about this East Lake cottage that feels straight out of a storybook. Step inside and you’re immediately welcomed into the heart of the home, a living room rich in color, anchored by a stone fireplace that begs for a stack of books, a cup of tea, or an evening with friends gathered close. From here, walk out to the open screened porch complete with fenced in yard access, where summer nights linger long and the backyard feels like an extension of the home.
Arched doorways guide you through the main floor, where a dining room with built-in seating flows into a beautifully updated kitchen. Here, new cabinetry, appliances, and plenty of counter space set the stage for slow Saturday mornings or lively dinners with neighbors. A window over the sink looks out across the greenery, while the mudroom, with built-in storage, offers a graceful transition to the deck and fully fenced yard, a wide-open canvas for gardening, play, or dinners strung with twinkling lights.
The main level holds both a front bedroom as well as an additional guest suite with a large closet — convenient and comfortable. Nearby, the bath pairs vintage inspired finishes with a large privacy-glass window that adds both character and comfort. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat. Skylights drench the room in natural light, while a spa-like bath with a separate tub promises a place to unwind at the end of the day. Add in thoughtful details like a newly poured driveway, EV charger, and updated fixtures throughout, and you have a home that blends modern ease with timeless charm.
