The home is currently set up with five bedrooms, offering plenty of flexibility for anyone needing extra sleeping space, a home office, guest room, or additional living areas. The first floor features a large kitchen, generous room sizes, and a flexible front room that can continue to be used as a bedroom or be converted back into a living room or sitting area. The fully finished basement has a separate entrance and adds even more usable space for recreation, storage, work, or extended living needs. Off the rear of the home, there is an enclosed back porch overlooking a private backyard with plenty of room to entertain, garden, or simply enjoy outdoor space. The deck is also in great condition, making the backyard feel even more functional. The location is another major plus. The home is close to the J and Z train at Woodhaven Boulevard, along with nearby bus options, the Q53+, Q29, Q11, Q52+, and the Q56, shopping along Jamaica Avenue, supermarkets, local conveniences, and Forest Park. The block itself is quiet, while still keeping you close to transportation, green space, and everyday essentials. With its detached layout, finished basement, separate entrance, private yard, enclosed porch, and flexible interior setup, this home offers a lot of space and potential in a convenient location.
