About This Home

As of November 2025

This classic Ferndale bungalow is special. Well located in the “‘dales”, the house sits on a true double lot, has a 2nd floor primary suite incl. full bath, WIC, built-ins, & more. 559 Gardendale welcomes all to the front sitting porch, inside into the LR which features a large bay window. The dining room is ample & convenient. The bright kitchen has a horseshoe layout, a dishwasher, & large window to the front yard. There are 2 bedrooms on the main level, the 2nd bedroom opens to an expansive flex space with soaring ceilings, 2 walls of windows, & a real “up north” vibe. The main floor bath has been renovated w/ modern fixtures & custom tiled shower.
The en-suite primary is wonderful. Private full bath w/shower, large walk-in closet, a loft area w/built-in desk, & lots of character, incl. oak hardwood floors. The basement features a finished area for games or entertainment, a practical workroom, a bright laundry area, as well as open space for the utilities (which have been upgraded by longtime owners as necessary). Outside is where the fun really gets going. Like a private park, this amazing parcel of land offers a private deck & garden area directly behind the home where people & pets can gather around the fire pit. Just over the fence, we find the rest of the story, a separately platted vacant lot that is all yours. The possibilities are endless here. The seller had a new concrete driveway poured, there is a 1 & 1/2 car garage, & so much more. This one’s different, different is good, Make Home Here.
