Welcome to 4917 Baptist Road! Oozing with charm and character! Note the cobblestone driveway, new roof, and stone front! Just a short walking distance to Caste Village Shoppes, entertainment, grocery store, churches, and public transportation!
Upon entering you will see it is not just your average cape cod style home. Most notable to the entry is the Dutch entry door, curving, wood staircase with wrought iron railing and porthole style window.
The entry offers a coat closet and a view of this beautiful curved dining room with built in glass and mirrored shelving.
Another view of the unique architectural shape of the dining room as well as the enormous picture window that floods the room with natural light. This room overlooks the lush, expansive back yard.
Just when you think the details can't get better than that, the living room is a feast for the eyes. Another expansive picture window, built in book cases surrounding the log burning fireplace, and original wide plank hardwood flooring that extends from the entry through the dining room and living room.
The living room offers two other windows as well--- complete with plantation shutters. One can be seen in this photo and the other is on the wall opposite the fireplace. Plenty of space to relax and unwind or to entertain!
The kitchen has been updated with concrete countertops, pebbled backsplash, ceramic tile flooring, recessed lighting, new cabinetry that meshes perfectly with refreshed and renewed pieces, newer gas stove, dishwasher, and microwave, sink and fixtures. A delightful place to prepare delicious meals!
An alternate view of the kitchen that looks out onto the slate patio which is completely covered and screened in. A perfect three season room and wonderful for indoor/outdoor entertaining!
Another view of the gorgeous entry with the curved staircase leading to the upstairs bedrooms and full bath.
The master bedroom is a generous size with 2 closets and dormer style windows giving the room charm and character. It has been painted in a warm, neutral tone and new, neutral carpeting installed to match any decor.
An alternate view of the master bedroom. Note the built in bookcase surrounding the six panel door as well as the additional space for plenty of furniture.
The main second floor bath as it appears from the hallway. Note the new toilet, vanity, sink and mirrored medicine cabinet as well as the window allowing for natural light to fill the room.
A view of the combination tub and shower. The plumbing and fixtures have been updated. Take note of the built in cabinet located in this room for convenient storage.
The second largest bedroom is not short on charm or space either. Tons of natural light and plenty of closet storage make this a wonderful retreat.
The third bedroom also has a unique shape and includes a large walk in style closet.
The finished gameroom in the basement area has been freshly painted, a new ceiling with recessed lighting has been added and the hardwoods refinished to a gleaming shine. This room also boasts built in bookshelves and a log burning fireplace. It opens out onto the brick patio and expansive back yard. The white door leads to a full bath.
The basement full bath has recently had the plumbing inspected and repaired/updated as needed---Fully functioning and so much better than the average "Pittsburgh Potty"!
Back upstairs to the oasis off of the kitchen! This patio is unique in so many ways! Slate flooring, a cement staircase winding to the bottom patio, a door leading to the attached garage, and an additional enclosed room that can be storage or an outdoor bar! This room overlooks the large, lush backyard. This space gives off a serene, tranquil beachy vibe.
This is the extra room off of the screened in porch. Note the levered door/window to the left. This opens to create a more open space into the porch area. The possible uses for this space are limitless! Office, craft room, work out room...
A view of the stairway leading to the patio below. It has similarities to a lighthouse staircase!
A view of the brick patio off of the gameroom as well as the screened in porch above.
A view of the huge basement with an updated electric panel and newer furnace and hot water heater.
Another view of the basement showing the large laundry area. Plenty of room to accommodate all of your laundry needs as well as additional storage, work out space, etc. The doorway leads to an additional storage room.
There is a walking trail that leads up to Union Park and can be accessed right from the back yard!
A view of the expansive back yard and the rear view of this beautiful home. Schedule an appointment to tour this fantastic home right away!
