Located in the heart of Southport Corridor, this 5,000-square-foot, six-bedroom masonry home has been extensively upgraded and is move-in ready. The main level offers generous living and entertaining space, featuring new hardwood floors, detailed millwork, and tall ceilings. The eat-in kitchen has been refreshed with several new appliances and includes an island with breakfast bar seating and a built-in banquette. It opens to a spacious family room with custom built-ins and one of three fireplaces. With four bedrooms upstairs and two more on the lower level, this home provides exceptional flexibility for work, guests, or play. The primary suite features a spa bath, two closets-including a large walk-in-and a new built-in bookcase. Additional living spaces include a top-floor den/office and a lower-level recreation room, both equipped with wet bars. Other highlights include hardwood floors throughout, fresh paint and designer wallcoverings, dual laundry centers, zoned HVAC, custom baby gates, and a mud room. Outdoor space is a standout, with a fenced front yard and three roomy, south-facing decks. The garage-top deck features a new pergola with privacy panels. The exterior underwent an extensive renovation in 2022, including improvements to the masonry and windows, new roofs, new synthetic decking, a new rear metal stair system, and new landscaping. Both HVAC systems were replaced in 2021. This home is in the sought-after Burley School District and just a short walk from Whole Foods, Margaret Donahue Park, and a variety of Southport Corridor restaurants, boutiques, and amenities.
