This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 3-bath home is nestled within the highly sought-after Anholm District, offering breathtaking views of Madonna Mountain. Ideally positioned on a corner lot, it is just steps from the popular Lincoln Deli and provides easy access to great hiking and biking trails. Originally built in the 1940s, this 1,844 sq. ft. residence has been thoughtfully remodeled while preserving its original charm. The inviting entryway, lined with built-in cabinetry, leads to a formal living room featuring a cozy fireplace and a picturesque bay window. The adjacent formal dining room offers scenic views of the tree-lined neighborhood and mountains beyond. The spacious family room seamlessly connects to the well-appointed kitchen, which boasts a center island with a prep sink, bar seating, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and abundant cabinetry and counter space. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a spa-like en-suite bath with a luxurious soaking tub and separate shower enclosure. Two additional bedrooms and bathrooms provide ample space for family or guests. New carpet has been installed throughout the living room, dining room, all three bedrooms, and the bright, window-lined bonus room. With its separate exterior entrance and French door access to the primary suite, this versatile bonus room adds an additional 213 sq. ft. of living space, not included in the home's original square footage. A spacious two-car garage offers plenty of storage, with additional off-street parking available in the driveway.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
