5140 Lynd Ave

Own a piece of Lyndhurst history! This is a 1920 Sears Kit Home, owned by the neighborhood builder. The neighborhood was his farm, which he subdivided into lots for residential houses. This was his house, and he kept an extra lot behind it for himself; it is one of the largest lots on the block. It is also the only house on the block with an extended, enclosed front porch. The inside of the house has abundant charm, with hardwood floors, vintage doors with brass handles, fixtures and built-in cabinets. Two generous bedrooms on the first floor, with a third on the second with a skylight and loft area, perfect for a home office. A great full basement awaits your finishing touches, with a second full bath, glass block windows, a laundry room and walk-in closet. Outside, the back yard has an extra parcel of land, and a 760 square foot workshop/garage with heat and 100 Amp service. The yard is beautifully landscaped with a deck, built in bench seating, a brick picnic area, a raised-bed garden, and beautiful old trees that were recently trimmed. The owner has planted asparagus, Jerusalem artichokes, onions, garlic, leeks, ramps, blueberries, blackberries and rhubarb, and daffodils and tulips come up around the garden every spring. Professionally inspected. 1 year home warranty included! A true neighborhood gem!!! Please call today for a private tour of this tranquil property!!!
