About This Home

Welcome to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath Kenmore home where timeless craftsmanship, thoughtful updates, and incredible future potential come together. From the moment you arrive, you’ll appreciate the exceptional curb appeal featuring maintenance-free vinyl siding, an architectural roof approximately 11 years old, a brand-new garage roof (2024), and an oversized 2.5-car garage.

Step inside and fall in love with the rich original natural woodwork, gleaming hardwood floors, French doors, and sun-filled living spaces that showcase the character and quality of a classic Kenmore home. The spacious living room with a beautiful fireplace flows effortlessly into the formal dining room, while the bright enclosed sunroom offers the perfect place to relax with your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day. The beautifully updated kitchen features ample cabinetry, generous counter space, and a charming breakfast area perfect for everyday living.

The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers the convenience of two generously sized first-floor bedrooms, while the private second-floor bedroom creates the perfect retreat. Just beyond, you’ll discover one of this home’s most extraordinary features—an expansive bonus room with soaring ceilings, providing an incredible amount of additional space not reflected in the tax records or official living square footage. Whether you dream of creating a luxurious primary suite, home office, studio, recreation room, or additional living space, the possibilities are truly endless.

Beautifully maintained and move-in ready, this exceptional home offers the perfect blend of historic charm, modern updates, and room to grow. Conveniently located near parks, shopping, restaurants, schools, and everything the Village of Kenmore has to offer, this is an opportunity you won’t want to miss.
