Welcome to 2812 Guilford Road, a well-maintained 1950s rambler ranch home set on over 1/3 acre beneath towering mature trees. An increasingly rare find in this sought-after neighborhood! From the moment you step inside, you’ll feel the authentic midcentury modern appeal, highlighted by a formal entry, warm wood-beam and inlay kitchen ceiling, European-style cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a large pantry. The cozy breakfast nook with custom retro-style booth seating is perfectly positioned in front of a large picture window and is an ideal spot for morning coffee or casual meals. A chalkboard painted wall wraps up the space. The open living and formal dining area is flooded with natural light thanks to dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, while a newer, highly efficient wood-burning stove adds wonderful ambiance and cozy warmth. Much of the main level features original hardwood floors, preserving the character you just don’t find in newer homes. The main floor offers three abnormally large bedrooms and a full bath, including a spacious primary bedroom with double closets, plus the bonus of a whole-house exhaust fan for efficient cooling. Downstairs, the 1,300+ sqft basement is open and ready to finish, already equipped with a second (rudimentary) full bath… perfect for future expansion and recreation space! Outside, enjoy a 14ftx8ft covered rear porch looking out into the private, treed backyard that is ideal for summer evenings or fall entertaining. The oversized 2.5-car attached garage (26’ deep!) easily accommodates vehicles and storage. Additional highlights include updated mechanicals, a dimensional shingle roof, and Lutron smart light switches in the living room, dining area, and kitchen for modern convenience. Well-located, full of character, and priced to sell… this is east-side living done right. Homes with this much space, style, and potential don’t come along often. Schedule your showing before it’s gone!
