From the moment you arrive, this home draws you in with its storybook curb appeal and inviting entry. Inside, sunlight fills the living room through beautiful stained-glass windows, reflecting off newly stained hardwood floors. A wood-burning fireplace framed by graceful archways sets a cozy tone, while the adjoining dining room blends classic character with fresh updates like a modern light fixture and brand new blinds. The kitchen offers a clean, functional layout with warm wood cabinetry, tile backsplash, a gas range, and access to the spacious deck perfect for your morning coffee, summer BBQs, or unwinding after a stroll through Francis Park. Both bedrooms feature hardwood floors, ceiling fans, and ample closet space, while the hall bath showcases ceramic tile and a tub/shower combo. The walk-out lower level provides excellent storage and laundry space, with plenty of potential for future finishing. Thoughtful updates include a freshly painted interior, new baseboards, newly stained hardwoods, a newer HVAC system (2022), and a new roof and gutters being installed. Outside, enjoy a level backyard with room to garden, entertain, or simply relax. All of this in a walkable community known for its charm, neighborly spirit, and convenient access to shopping, dining, and highways. A wonderful opportunity to own a beautifully maintained home that perfectly captures the heart and soul of South City living.
