Welcome to the Highlands! This beautiful and bright home has been stunningly updated. As you cross the relaxing, low maintenance engineered lumber decked front porch, you enter into the very expansive open Living room, where you are greeted by bright natural light, accented with old world charm, including an original leaded window from 150 years ago! The floor to ceiling stone surround gas log fireplace is a natural gathering place. And the gleaming hardwood floors continue throughout the home. Just beyond this space is a formal dining room, flanked by a home office or hobby room and powder-room. Next, you will find a beautiful brick accented spacious eat-in kitchen, which was updated just this year, with a new induction cooktop stove, microwave/convection oven, and dishwasher. Conveniently tucked behind a farm style door, is the convenient first-floor laundry closet and pantry. On the second floor you will find two well-appointed bedrooms as well as two full bathrooms. The third level will serve as an amazing, vaulted ceiling and exposed beam den, with an adjacent sleeping space. Guests might actually feel too at home in this space! The rear, privacy fenced yard features a two-car detached garage, relaxing and shady pergola, block walkways and patios, as well as a dedicated gardening area. If you are looking for a home in the city within a close proximity to Rockford Park, Trolly Square, Ed Oliver Golf and so much more, and still are hoping for garage parking and private space, this is the home for you. Please note the sellers are waiting for their new construction home to settle in January and prefer a settlement that will coincide.
