About This Home
As of May 2020Easy accessibility and everything nice in this head-turning twin on Elm St.! Deemed as one of the tree streets by locals, this Elm Street 3 BRs/2 bath 1,200 sq.-ft. brick-front, white millwork around front door home has earned reputation for upscale location and sits on quiet, wide city street with stretch of red-brick, well-established, well-maintained neighboring homes. Rose bushes, Holly trees and Hydrangeas mingle with pretty perennials do the property, while elevated entrance, center sidewalk and driveway flushed to the left leading to back all precede the home. Updates include new SS appliances and garden window, refinished floors, updated electric, new LL carpeting and LED lights, and fresh paint throughout. Step inside and front room is bright, fresh and airy; thanks to home s southern exposure, morning sun floods the rooms. Polished hardwood floors and neutral paint colors unfold before you, while adjacent is stunning bay window with window seat. It s the best seat in the house! It s also perfect for curling up with good book and listening to hum of city life in the distant background. Pleasant perk is that the window seat opens to cedar storage, offering a dual benefit. It is great for stacking sweaters during warm seasons and offers more room in BR closets! Two windows flank beautiful brick wood-burning FP with flat heath and antique brass surround, and there s a ceiling fan. Hardwood steps with runner are against wall, while deep hall closet sits just next to front door. Room is spacious, yet warm and inviting. Arch doorway, lovely architectural element of earlier times, leads to back of home where hardwood floors continue in DR to right. Black wrought-iron chandelier signifies perfect spot for dining table and chairs. DR is completely open to kitchen through oversized entrance. Updated kitchen serves up both trendy and traditional! New SS Whirlpool appliances and new garden window with glass shelves, ideal for growing herbs or enjoying blooming flowers indoors, meld with classic maple cabinets and granite-looking countertops. Details do not go unnoticed of the 7 recessed lights and built-in trash drawer. DR connected to kitchen offers great space to entertain! Carpeted tan steps lead to finished portion of LL of white textured wood walls and dark-wood crown molding, trim and baseboards. On one wall spans built-in bench, while other wall is home to built-in angled bar with shelves. Room is balanced and cozy, great rec room. Door separates rooms and 2nd area is clean and tidy, yet unfinished with W & D, utility sink and cabinet. Wrap around to full bath of pedestal sink, gray ceramic tile floor and all-tile shower. Accent of lead-block glass transom window adds touch of charm. Also, wonderful under-the steps alcove for out-of-the-way storage. Door from here leads up to backyard. Level backyard features dual-door shed, while 4-cone-shape evergreens offer beauty and privacy. All-hardwood floored 2nd level boasts 3 BRs, all spacious with roomy closets, along with linen closet. Hall bath features B & W tile floor, wall of white tile with black-tile border and diamond accents, BathFitter shower and dual-door vanity. Accent with any color! Home also has steps that lead to completely floored attic, awesome storage! One block away from Kirkwood Hwy., less-than-10-minute straight access to downtown Wilm. with its array of businesses, restaurants and entertainment, and mins. from I-95 and train station. Charm and convenience in this city home!
