About This Home

As of June 2021

This house presents a rare and outstanding opportunity to own a home with incredible charm and great bones while being move-in ready and ready for your ideas at the same time...all in a spectacular location in the heart of Crescent Park on a wonderful tree-lined street nestled among truly beautiful homes! A freshly painted (2021) neutral palette encourages you to bring your decorating ideas to make this your own. Walking up to the house you're greeted with the classic colonial brick exterior complemented by a concrete drive and paver walkway with pillars (2016), a lovely maintenance free front door (2015) and garage door (2017). Hardwood floors greet you in the foyer and flow thruout the majority of the traditional floorplan. Generous living room with fireplace and dining room offer wonderful flex space while the oversized family room can house the largest of sectionals with wall space to mount the TV of your dreams! With granite and stainless appliances, the efficient kitchen also has a breakfast bar. Hardwood continues upstairs into all 4 spacious bedrooms on the 2nd level. The primary bedroom is offset and is easily converted to an ensuite with the addition of a door while the remaining 3 bedrooms share a bath....both 2nd floor baths were renovated in 2017. Check out the walk-up attic, amazing for extra storage or potential expansion! Great space in the lower level includes a rec room with fireplace and bar, large utility room with laundry, workshop and storage. In addition to the updates already mentioned the house was tuckpointed in 2013, new Pella windows on 2nd floor in 2017, brand new furnace in 2021, air conditioner in 2009, hot water heater in 2016, roof in 2008.
