On a quiet one-way street in short walking distance to fabulous Germantown Ave cafes, bars and restaurants and a stone's throw to Sedgwick Train Station, this sweet spot has it all. As you walk up this friendly neighborhood street you'll immediately notice the modern vibe of this 100 yo twin. With it's updated black and white exterior you can't miss it! Saunter up the front steps and check out on the covered porch with hardwood ceiling, then enter into the home where you will notice the fabulously high ceilings, updated windows, newly refinished pine floors, open concept living and dining space with a coat closet (very hard to come by in 100 yo homes!). If you head back into the kitchen you'll be impressed with it's size: plenty of room to cook and host friends and family with a large island that has space for 2, a half bath and the back door heading out to the paver back patio and garden space with a brand new wood fence. You could expand the garden space by removing some pavers or keep your maintenance super low and use it for sitting outside enjoying a tasty meal at an outside table. You can also enjoy the figs dropping into your yard from the neighbor, pick from the peach tree in front of your house or grab a few pears from across the street. This is a community that loves to share their fruit! As you head up the steps you'll notice the sun coming through the skylight as you enter into the large primary owner's suite complete with a walk-in California Closet, an updated shower stall bathroom and brand new carpet. Head down the hallway to find a beautiful center hall bath and two more bedrooms. The middle room has new carpet and the hall and front room recently refinished hardwood floors. The upstairs front room, currently used as an office, is bright and sunny and perfect for all your plants! The house is almost entirely updated with central air, updated electric, a silver coated roof, newly finished pine wood floors, new carpet, updated lighting fixtures in the kitchen, living and dining areas, a brand new dishwasher and the primary bedroom en suite bathroom is under construction (completed by Oct 6). It's adorable and has so much to offer, it's.a must see! Seller is a real estate agent.
