About This Home
As of May 2025This charming, slate-roofed cape is nestled on a quiet street in Forest Hill Terrace, a stones throw from Forest Hill Park! A welcoming colonial-style entrance with white pilasters and dentil molding sets the tone for the refined interior. Inside, the bright living room centers around a stunning painted brick fireplace with an elegant white mantel and direct access to the screened porch with striking hunter green beadboard ceiling offers seasonal outdoor living. A spacious formal dining room connects to the Eat-In kitchen showcasing white shaker cabinets, butcher block countertops, tile backsplash and high-end stainless appliances including a wall-mounted double oven. Custom storage solutions include a built-in spice shelf and pot rack. Upstairs you will find the primary bedroom with two closets and an arched alcove overlooking the backyard. Across the hall is the full bath and 2nd bedroom, complete with built-in storage. Heart pine and hardwood run throughout the main floors. Down both flights of stairs, the finished, walk-out basement hosts a spacious family room with built-ins, the 3rd bedroom, another full bathroom and laundry room, all complete with newer LVP. Out back you'll find a perfect space for entertaining on the patio and yard with mature landscaping providing natural privacy. Raised beds and a garden shed complete this oasis. The owners have kept meticulous care of the property with notable updates including new copper valleys on the roof, new water shield, and replacement siding and slate on the dormers. The basement has been renovated, and a new sump pump and mini-split have been installed too keep the house dry and comfortable. This turnkey property perfectly balances historic charm with modern comfort.
