Welcome to 813 Catalpa! This beautifully updated colonial is just steps from the energy of Downtown Royal Oak. Set on a picturesque tree-lined street, this home offers the rare combination of walkability, privacy, and warmth—perfect for those who value both lifestyle and location. From the moment you arrive, the home’s classic curb appeal, freshly painted exterior, brand new roof and classic front porch create a warm welcome. Inside, you’ll find a light-filled layout featuring gleaming hardwood floors, coved ceilings, and a cozy living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace — perfect for quiet evenings or casual gatherings. The formal dining room flows seamlessly into an all-season sunroom, offering a flexible space that works just as well for morning coffee as it does for working from home or curling up with a good book. The kitchen offers efficient function with updated stainless steel appliances and even a window flower-box for added warmth. Downstairs, a partially finished basement provides room to grow—whether you’re looking to create a home office, playroom, or media space, or of course great storage space. The upper floor has three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath, all filled with natural light and classic character. The home sits on a generous oversized .27 acre lot with mature trees and a private fenced-in backyard, perfect for outdoor dining, gardening, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. This property has seen extensive recent improvements, including a brand new roof, new interior and exterior paint, energy-efficient vinyl windows, new water heater and newer washer and dryer—all adding to the turnkey experience. What makes this home truly special is its unbeatable location. Whether it’s weekend walks to the Farmers Market, grabbing a latte and pastry from Bread by Crispelli’s, catching a summer concert in the park, or playing at one of the many parks within walking distance, this is a home that places you in the heart of the action while offering a peaceful place to unwind.
