Designed across two levels, it features 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and expansive south-facing windows that flood both floors with natural light. Located just minutes from Council Crest Park, the Fairmount Loop, and Hillsdale Town Center, it offers both natural beauty and urban convenience. A spacious entryway with a large coat closet sets the tone for the home’s well-planned layout. The main level showcases exposed wood tongue-and-groove vaulted ceilings, a striking floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, and a formal dining room with a butler’s pantry. Sliding glass doors lead to a flat backyard and a 20’ x 15’ deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen blends classic charm with modern conveniences like slide-out shelving and ample storage. A casual dining area provides flexibility with direct access to the covered two-car carport. Two guest bedrooms feature original hardwood flooring, while a spacious primary bedroom and two full bathrooms complete the main floor. Central AC ensures year-round comfort. The daylight basement expands the home’s versatility with two large bedrooms, a generous family room with exposed wood beams and a brick fireplace, and an exterior door leading to a secondary flat backyard. A dedicated workshop, built-in storage, and a large laundry room with an extra refrigerator add to the home’s functionality. Set on a private, maturely landscaped lot with Mt. Sylvania views, the property includes a spacious driveway and a two-car carport. A two-year-old full-power generator provides peace of mind. Nestled in a neighborhood known for stunning mid-century homes, this is a rare opportunity to own a true architectural gem. [Home Energy Score = 1.
