About this home
Single Family · Built 1905 · Historic
Newly REHABBED in 2025, this gorgeous home with an IN-LAW UNIT on an oversized lot boasts four levels of living space with a total of 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a full, finished basement plus a one-car garage with one exterior parking space. The main level features an open concept with combined living and dining rooms, an electric fireplace, gleaming hardwood floors, stunning light fixtures, custom geometric designs, and more. Prepare your favorite recipes in the spacious kitchen with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, a waterfall island, and modern pendant lighting. A first-floor bedroom and full bathroom with an enlarged shower and floating vanity provide ample convenience. Ascend to the second level to find three additional bedrooms (two with walk-in closets!) and another full bathroom. For extra privacy, the cozy and carpeted third level offers a loft for lounging and a bedroom. The finished basement can easily double as an in-law unit with its own front and back door access, a bedroom, and full bathroom. The laundry room is appropriately located in its own space with a sump pump in the basement. During the warm seasons, enjoy entertaining on the rear deck, as well as play and garden in the fenced yard. Just minutes to public transit, Interstate access, retail, restaurants, parks, and more. There is truly so much to appreciate about this home!
