Side Exterior View

A white, two-story classic house stands prominently against a clear blue sky. Its simple wooden exterior siding complements the historic charm. The steep, triangular gable roof with grey shingles adds architectural interest, while the modest windows—two on the upper floor and two on the lower—allow natural light inside. A small porch area is visible on the left side, framed by a few barren trees and bushes planted along the house’s base. The green grassy lawn in front is well maintained, bordered by sidewalks and neighboring homes that create a quiet suburban atmosphere.

Front Yard and Detached Garage

A modest white detached garage stands centrally with double doors showing some wear, hinting at the home’s age. A concrete path leads to the garage, framed by a mix of patchy grass and dirt.

Tall evergreen and leafless deciduous trees surround the area, enhancing the classic small-town residential atmosphere during early spring.

Below the middle window sits a modern air conditioning unit with two connected meters and a small yellow bucket to the side. The lawn surrounding the house has patchy grass with some bare soil and scattered dry leaves, and mature trees extend branches over the property.
