About This Home
As of December 2025Tucked just steps from the vibrant heart of Alger Heights, this storybook Cape Cod blends classic charm with thoughtful updates throughout. Step inside to find warm hardwood floors, graceful coved ceilings, and a cozy fireplace that anchors the living room. The main floor also features a formal dining, one comfortable bedroom, and a beautifully updated half bath. Brass accents and period details bring a timeless character to every corner. Upstairs, two inviting dormer-style bedrooms share a completely renovated full bathroom, offering a perfect retreat at the end of the day. Lower level adds more livable space, including a bright laundry area, an extra shower, and a new 2023 HVAC system w/ central air to keep the home comfortable year-round. Outside, enjoy a private fenced backyard, a one-stall garage, and a spacious deck ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings outdoors. The roof and windows are both less than ten years old, ensuring peace of mind for years to come.
