As you drive up to the property, you'll be welcomed by a charming front yard and a lovely front patio, ideal for relaxing with your morning coffee or chatting with neighbors. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home stands out with its thoughtful updates and timeless appeal. T As you step through the front door, the home immediately draws you in with its 9-foot ceilings, creating a spacious, airy feel. The freshly painted living room is warm and inviting, perfect for entertaining or cozying up with a good book. This space flows seamlessly into the dining room, where a stunning exposed natural brick party wall adds character and a touch of rustic charm. The exposed brick anchors the room, adding a perfect mix of historic detail and modern style. At the back of the first floor, you’ll find the fully renovated, open-concept kitchen. This space is a chef’s dream, featuring stainless steel appliances, sleek granite countertops, and plenty of Forevermark cabinetry for storage.

A full bathroom with modern finishes and fixtures is located in the hallway, as well as a stackable washer and dryer for ultimate convenience—no more lugging laundry up and down stairs. The fully finished basement level is its own private retreat, with a fourth bedroom and an additional full bathroom. This space is ideal for a guest suite, home office, or a personal gym. The basement also features a second laundry area with hookups for another washer and dryer, adding extra functionality for larger households or long-term guests. This home underwent a complete renovation in 2016, blending the best of its historic origins with contemporary upgrades. While the exposed brick in the dining room showcases the home’s early 20th-century craftsmanship, the modern updates in addition to those mentioned above, include fresh paint throughout, a new water line (2024), a stunning skylight in the bedroom bathroom, and a host of smart home features: oven, thermostat, washer, dryer, and water heater are designed for convenience and comfort to ensure the home is move-in ready.
