    What's special

    Completely renovated kitchenNewer paver patioStriking curb appealRecessed lightingBeautiful leaded windowsCalming foyerFully fenced backyard
    Welcome to 1208 French Ave! Follow the red brick road to one of the most sought-after streets in beautiful Lakewood. This stunning century home has been thoughtfully and extensively renovated throughout. Make no mistake, this was not a flip. Every improvement was completed over time by a homeowner who carefully curated each space to enhance flow, functionality, and livability while preserving the timeless character. The striking curb appeal immediately captures your attention with the sturdy stairway leading to the expansive front porch and thoughtful landscaping. From either side of the home, access the fully fenced backyard featuring a newer paver patio. Step inside to a calming foyer that sets the tone for the home’s intentional design. The main level showcases brand new premium hickory hardwood flooring, seamlessly tying together each living space. The cozy living room features recessed lighting, a fireplace, and beautiful leaded windows which leads into the completely renovated kitchen. Where many homes would stop, this one continues to evolve with purpose. The versatile dining room is complemented by a butler’s pantry. A step down leads you into the family room with a 2nd fireplace and convenient half bath, creating a natural extension of the main living space rarely found in homes of this era. Upstairs, high-end carpeting spans the 2nd and 3rd levels, enhancing comfort throughout all four bedrooms. The layout includes a true owner’s suite with en-suite bath and the added convenience of a dedicated laundry room just off the suite. The third level provides additional above-grade versatility, ideal for a variety of uses. The basement continues the theme of thoughtful updates with a brand new full bath and a spacious rec room. For added peace of mind, the home is equipped with newer HVAC ’22. This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully reimagined century home where every detail reflects quality craftsmanship and a deep respect for its original character.
