A short, easy strole from the grocery store & shops of Mass Street, this classic 1920 Lawrence two-story on a double lot has been fervently restored by the current owners, who have gone to considerable time and expense to improve upon and update the canvas they acquired. Upon entry, you feel the love and devotion all around you where both original, and some new hardwood floors and trim work blend seamlessly with a bold, modern color palette. Throughout the home the space has been enhanced by custom-made wainscotting in the foyer, many new windows, and all new HVAC & water heater, while the stylish kitchen, featuring butcher block counters and stainless steel appliances, serves as the true heart of the home. Upstairs three spacious bedrooms and sleek bathroom are the perfect backdrop for tile floors and original Douglas fir hardwoods. After an enjoyable evening spent on the broad back deck overlooking the big fenced yard lined by mature trees, escape to the newly renovated primary suite with built-in closets and en-suite bathroom, a rare find in this vintage of home. Bonus: the refreshed laundry room with new washer and dryer (stays with property) is on the bedroom level. There's so much to love and appreciate here. The current owners have proven to be the finest stewards and are looking to pass their passion and dedication on to the next...could that be you? Home sold in its present AS IS condition. Inspections welcome, Sellers will make no repairs.
