About This Home
Welcome to 2801 Thames Avenue - a brick ranch in the sought-after Avondale neighborhood offering 1,269 sq. ft. of finished living space on the first floor plus an additional 600 sq. ft. of finished space in the basement. This 3-bedroom home features an inviting open floor plan, with the main living spaces recently updated. The living room is filled with natural light from a bay window, while the dining area stands out with a large floor-to-ceiling window bringing plenty of light into the main areas. The updated eat-in kitchen (2023) boasts new cabinetry, a large center island with room for four bar stools, granite countertops, white subway tile backsplash, updated lighting, plus a built-in pantry and all appliances to remain. Three walls were removed to open the kitchen and dining room into one expansive great room. The spacious bedrooms include a primary suite with an updated half bath attached, while the full bath located off the hall features a double-length vanity, charming original 1950s pink tile, and a freshly reglazed white bathtub. Two of the bedrooms are large enough to accommodate a king-size bed, while the third is ideal for a child's room, guest room, or home office.
The partially finished basement provides a comfortable family room, laundry with utility sink, abundant storage, and a finished flex room perfect for a home office or workout space. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard with a large deck and storage shed.
Notable updates: new roof (2019), shed roof (2023), windows (2020, bay windows 2023), flooring (2023), back door (2023), updated lighting and ceiling fans (2023), partial electrical (2023), and interior doors in common areas (2023). The furnace was also repaired in 2018 for added peace of mind.
All this on a quiet cul-de-sac close to dining, shopping, parks, and schools - ready for its next owner!
