Step across the threshold and prepare to be dazzled by the combination of old world character and charm of original hardwood features--with all the updates you need to make life convenient--including the beautiful newly renovated kitchen and zen-like bathroom. Originally built in 1915, the house still boasts original hardwood trim. Relax and enjoy the view of neighborhood bypassers and the garden star magnolia tree blooms in early spring-- from your cozy front porch, or take advantage of a little more privacy in the backyard where you can feast on luscious fruits from your very own fig tree! . The vestibule, a feature that keeps the cold out in the winter, leads into a wide expanse of an open floor plan with many options for furniture layout and recessed lighting throughout. Currently the family uses the middle room as their living space, but you could just as easily make that your true dining room and configure the front room as your living area. The newly renovated kitchen features all new stainless steel appliances, cherry wood cabinetry, and quartz countertops, as well as 3 brand new windows. Upstairs you'll find 4 bedrooms giving you plenty of space for a flex office space or excercise room. The 3 bedrooms are amply sized for traditional bedrooms, with the 4th currently being used as a music room and the front bedroom featuring bay windows. The bathroom was redone in 2019 with neutral tones and beautiful glass doors on all sides that lend a feeling of openness. The major material aspects of the house include a brand new steam boiler heating system featuring a high efficiency furnace. Finally the washer and dryer circa 2018 are conveniently located on the 2nd floor to make laundry delivery much easier and quicker. Top it all off with easy access to the Baltimore Avenue trolley route 34, 2 blocks from the #52 bus line which give an easy 15 minute commute into center city. 5 minute walk from Cedar park and all the hot restaurants and local culture of Baltimore Ave. Come and tour this house today--all that's left is for you to move in and put the final touches of hOMe on to make it your own!
