What the Owners Love About Living Here
We always like to ask sellers what they will miss most about their home.
At 8426 Baumgarten, their answers weren’t about finishes or features. They were about how they actually live here.
They love:
- Sitting on the front porch
- Cooking out with their neighbors
- How quiet the street is
- Being close to the park
- Their exceptionally large primary bedroom
- Having a large living area
- The privacy of the backyard
Those are the things photos and square footage don’t always tell you.
Take a Look Inside 8426 Baumgarten Drive

Built in 1964, the home has been updated for the way people live today while keeping the generous room sizes that make established homes so appealing.
Newer energy-efficient windows bring in plenty of natural light, updated flooring runs throughout much of the home, and the floor plan gives you several different ways to use the space.
2,595 Square Feet — All on One Level
One of the strongest things about 8426 Baumgarten is simply how much usable living space you get for the price.
The main living room is approximately 17 x 17 feet and includes a fireplace and built-in cabinetry.
The kitchen opens easily to the living and dining areas and features built-in cabinetry, granite or natural-stone countertops and a pantry.
Whether you’re having people over or simply making dinner on a Tuesday night, the layout gives everyone room without feeling disconnected.
And then there’s an entire second living space.
A 23 x 17-Foot Game Room
At approximately 23 x 17 feet, the game room gives you serious flexibility.
Use it as a:
- Second living room
- Media room
- Home office
- Playroom
- Workout room
- Hobby space
Or create a room that does more than one job.
For anyone who works from home, wants separation between living spaces or simply needs a little more room, this is one of the features that makes the floor plan particularly useful.
An Oversized Primary Suite
The primary bedroom is approximately 18 x 17 feet — and it feels like it.
The suite includes:
- Fireplace
- Built-in cabinetry
- Walk-in closet
- Generous ceiling height
- Plenty of room for a sitting area
It is less about squeezing furniture into a bedroom and more about having a room you can actually use.
No surprise: the size of the primary bedroom is one of the things the current owners say they will miss most.
Front Porch Out Front. Privacy Out Back.
8426 Baumgarten gives you two very different outdoor spaces.
Out front, there’s the porch the owners love for sitting outside, seeing neighbors and enjoying the quiet street.
Out back, the fenced yard gives you privacy and room for outdoor dining, cooking out, pets, gardening or simply having somewhere to unplug.
It is part of what the owners have enjoyed about living here: connection to the neighborhood when they want it and privacy when they don’t.
