About This Home
As of May 2025This 1950's ranch is stunning inside and out! Flooded with natural light, this home seamlessly blends timeless charm with modern design. The fully remodeled kitchen features Marmoleum flooring, quartz countertops, stylish cabinetry, a gas range, and an eat-in area with French doors that open directly to the backyard, perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The spacious primary suite boasts a walk-in closet and a stunning en-suite bath with double sinks and a walk-in shower. Throughout the home, you'll find gleaming hardwood floors, generously sized bedrooms, updated windows, and plenty of storage. The second bathroom is thoughtfully finished with custom mosaic and tilework for a designer touch. An oversized converted two-car garage offers incredible flexibility; ideal as a studio, office, or bonus space, or even a future ADU conversion. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced, expansive backyard with a patio and the most charming chicken coop you’ve ever seen. Ideally located in the heart of NOPO, close to St. Johns commercial district, New Seasons, local parks (including one just down the street), iconic Forest Park, and public transit. This home truly has it all: style, space, and location. [Home Energy Score = 8. HES Report at
