Welcome to this Mediterranean Revival Avondale home! The welcoming front porch leads you into the beautiful arched front door and windows of the foyer. This home offers an ideal mix of traditional formal rooms alongside distinct living areas. The thoughtfully laid out kitchen features a charming butler's pantry that shows the homes history. A built in banquette offers a cozy dining space for casual meals, while the formal dining room remains available for special occasions. The first floor also includes a convenient powder room and a dedicated office area. Upstairs offers four spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms. The primary suite features a separate tub and shower and 2 separate vanities and closets. The private backyard is absolutely lovely! The barrel tile roof is 8 years old. The AC and duct work is 8 years old and the electric was upgraded to copper romex in 1980. Plumbing was upgraded with CPVC in 2002.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
