This idyllic brick home has plenty of curb appeal with its quaint front yard and a cozy, large covered porch with ceiling fan. Once inside you will marvel at the absolutely beautiful and original , refinished hardwood floors in the large and spacious living room area. Proceed into the combined kitchen and dining area and you will be taken for sure. The space was recently renovated to cater to the home chef and those who entertain as the space is well thought out and equipped. Get out your kitchen checklist, because it is all right here. Ceiling height cabinets, some with glass inserts to show off your bling, large stainless steel refrigerator, stainless steel dishwasher, stainless steel gas range with wall mounted range hood, farmhouse sink, granite countertops, island with seating, marble subway tile backsplash and plenty of room for a full sized dining table and chairs. The kitchen is bright and cheery with two large windows and a view of the city skyline!

You'll find a large, recently poured patio , lush grass and garden beds surrounded by a tall wooden privacy fence, a beautiful and peaceful refuge and you will completely forget you are in the city. You won't be able to pull yourself away from this house. The house has had many recent upgrades as well.
