About This Home

As of October 2021

A quintessential 2/2 Norhill bungalow in the best ways (quaint porch, traditional layout, and phenomenal location), not so typical in others! This fantastic home has undergone an extensive recent makeover with new modern flooring, appliances, countertops, doors, and more to make it ready for move-in or ready to list as an investment property. One of the smartest upgrades to the property is the detached "gar-port" behind an automated gate providing a flexible covered area for parking, play space, storage, and even outdoor living. Each room in the home strikes the perfect balance of classic and contemporary, especially the kitchen with sleek quartz countertops and a coffee bar that leads directly to the generous backyard. Most importantly, phenomenal closet space for a historic bungalow! All surrounded by Heights and Brooke Smith amenities. Won't last long, when can you see it?
