Fresh, neutral-colored paint enhances the warm and cohesive atmosphere, making you feel right at home the moment you step inside. The kitchen features modern updates, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinet space, along with a cozy breakfast nook perfect for morning coffee.The large second-floor bedroom is a true retreat, with generous space and a custom walk-in closet system added in 2020, providing all the storage you could need. The bathroom was beautifully updated in 2019, offering a stylish and functional space for your daily routine. Each of the other two bedrooms on the main level provides a comfortable retreat. The home also had a new roof installed in 2015, ensuring peace of mind for years to come. The unfinished basement is equipped with a B-Dry waterproofing system, meaning the first step to finishing the basement has already been completed for the new owner. Whether you envision a home office, gym, or entertainment area, the possibilities are endless.

The cedar privacy fence, installed in 2020, adds an extra level of comfort and seclusion. A spacious 2-car garage completes this property, providing ample storage and convenience. You couldn’t ask for a better location! This home is just minutes away from downtown Berkley, as well as Downtown Royal Oak, Downtown Ferndale, and offers quick access to Downtown Detroit.
