Blending timeless character with thoughtful updates and significant improvements, this home is truly ready for its next chapter. The inviting front porch welcomes you into a spacious, light-filled front room that comfortably accommodates both living and dining areas. Designed for everyday living, the refreshed kitchen features stainless-steel appliances, tall cabinetry with updated cabinet doors, granite countertops, a tiled backsplash, a pantry closet, and a new kitchen window that enhances the space's natural light and warmth. The main level offers 3 comfortable bedrooms and a beautifully remodeled full bathroom (2022), along with updated first-floor flooring. Upstairs, the finished second floor provides a generously sized primary bedroom spanning the length of the home, creating a private and flexible retreat. Additional living space continues in the finished basement, where you'll find a spacious family room, a second full bathroom, and a dedicated laundry area. A drain tile system and two sump pumps add reliability and peace of mind. This home has been extensively improved with major mechanical and exterior updates, including a new roof, gutters, and siding (2024); new windows (2023); a furnace and air conditioner (2021); and a tankless hot water heater (2022). A Generac natural gas standby generator provides automatic backup power to essential systems, offering added confidence during outages. Outdoor living is equally inviting with a fenced backyard and brick paver patio, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The oversized two-car garage, built in 2008, features a loft for additional storage and a convenient party door for easy access to the yard. Set on a great block and enhanced by substantial recent improvements, this solid brick bungalow offers space, flexibility, long-term value, and unbeatable proximity to transportation.
