About This Home

As of September 2024

Step into timeless elegance with this beautifully redone two-story home in Garfield Park: a rare open concept that respects the traditional character of the house. The inviting foyer, with its classic French doors, leads you into a spacious living room featuring a cozy fireplace and gleaming hardwood floors. The formal dining room is bathed in natural light, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The large, updated kitchen is a chef's delight with granite counters, a large island, bountiful cabinets, and stainless appliances. The main floor sunroom, with custom built in shelves, offers a versatile space perfect for a home office or library. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bathroom, complete with a large tub and a separate, marble tiled shower. Outside, enjoy the serenity of a brick patio and a fenced-in backyard. The large two-stall garage provides additional storage space.

Over a decade of ownership, the sellers have updated nearly every aspect of this charming home: new pitched roof (2015); full bathroom remodel (2016); gutted kitchen and half-bath remodel with all new appliances and fixtures (2019); plumbing replaced with PEX service and PVC drains (2019); new flat roof (2022); new water heater (2023). Floors have been redone and new paint throughout!
