Property Description
Spacious and charming, this Tudor-style cottage welcomes you with distinctive brickwork, fresh landscaping, and solid wood front door, with its leaded glass detail. Step through the vestibule into a foyer that opens up to light-filled living and dining rooms surrounded by graceful archways, layered plaster crown moldings, ceiling rosettes, natural fireplace and bay window. The updated kitchen boasts granite counters, backsplash, brand-new stainless steel appliances, and new flooring in a bright, practical workspace. The kitchen extends to a vintage 1940s breakfast nook with an exquisite plaster-detailed coffered ceiling-an inviting spot for casual meals or access to the cozy raised back porch. Two sunny bedrooms and a full bath are located on the first floor. A beautiful staircase leads up to two additional bedrooms, a second full bath, and walk-in storage closet. Original hardwood floors extend throughout the home. Mechanically updated with a new roof (2018), furnace and central air (2020), and Pella replacement windows in good condition. The basement includes a large finished multipurpose room, laundry, storage and utility rooms with professionally installed waterproofing. There is extensive storage throughout the house. The attached two-car garage offers a high ceiling and power door. Outside, the low-maintenance yard features a paver patio surrounded by trees, flowering shrubs, and perennial gardens. Located in a quiet, picturesque neighborhood, within a walkable distance to both highly rated Kerby and Brownell schools, this roomy, well-kept home offers timeless charm with smart updates.
