About This Home

As of February 2023

Say "Hello" to a great deal!! This stone-faced, castle-front, straight-thru just hit the market and is now available for new owners! Upon arriving at 1236 Stirling St., you will immediately notice the wooden front deck/porch that will be perfect for morning coffee or summertime barbecues! You will see how big this home actually is with a large living room greeting you as you walk inside flowing into the dining room. The hardwood flooring was cleverly painted a dark glossy hue that provides a complimentary contrast to the light painted walls throughout the home. The kitchen is in the rear of the house, is a nice size, and has plenty of cabinet space! Upstairs you will find a main bedroom that has 2 closets and a full on-suite bathroom, a beautifully updated hallway bathroom, and 2 other bedrooms that are a nice size! Down the basement you will see that you have access to your garage, access to your utilities, and washer & dryer...and a finished basement! Yup, a finished basement plus another full bath. This home is centrally located as well. Schools, malls, public transportation, are just a stones throw away, and it is just down the street from Tarken Playgroud, a great place for the neighborhood kids! It's RARE to come across a home in this neighborhood like this with 3-bedrooms, 3 FULL BATHS and a finished basement. Seller selling as-is. You don't want to miss out on this great opportunity!!
