About this home
Single Family · Built 1948
Classic brick Cape Cod in sought after Lincoln School district! The cozy living room w/fireplace welcomes you in to this comfortable home. Step into the well planned living/entertaining area which includes a nice-size dining room and attractive & functional kitchen, complete with custom Amish cabinets. The kitchen opens to the spacious and light-filled family room boasting prairie style windows and sliding doors that lead to the deck, overlooking a large back yard. The main floor also offers 2 bedrooms (one currently serving as a home office) and a full updated bathroom with new tub and shower walls. The second floor provides 2 more bedrooms and a full bath. You will love the possibilities the basement offers! Complete the partially finished area and there's still lots of room for storage or added flex space. Hardwood floors run through-out the house. This home has been lovingly maintained but sellers are offering it 'as-is'. A/C, Microwave & Hot Water Heater new in 2025. Oven range is not included. Such a great block & location - close to the Spring Rd and York/Vallette business districts. Don't miss out on a wonderful opportunity to make this your home and enjoy all that Elmhurst has to offer!
