This home has been thoughtfully improved while preserving the original details that give it warmth and soul. Enter through the vestibule, where original transom windows and a custom light fixture set the tone. The first floor features beautiful original floors and a grand living room with a decorative mantel and exposed brick. Beyond a convenient half bathroom, a generous dining area flows seamlessly into the completely renovated kitchen, which offers radiant heated tile floors, a breakfast bar, and updated finishes designed for easy everyday living and entertaining. Up the gracious staircase, the second floor includes a large front bedroom with a private en-suite bathroom featuring double sinks and a tiled shower. At the rear of this level is an additional bedroom, along with a flexible bonus space ideal for a home office, playroom, or fourth bedroom. A second full bathroom with a bathtub serves these rooms. The third floor offers another spacious and private bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom, creating a quiet retreat. The basement provides ample storage and houses the laundry area. Outside, the private backyard is perfect for gatherings, gardening, or simply enjoying fresh air. Step out the front door and you’re just moments from Shot Tower or Rally coffee, Weccacoe and Shot Tower Playgrounds, and a short walk to all the shops and restaurants Queen Village has to offer.
