Welcome to this updated Cape Cod in Cleveland Heights' desirable Royal Heights neighborhood. A rare and flexible floor plan offers two bedrooms and a full bath on both the first and second floors, providing options for first-floor living, guests, a home office, or multigenerational needs. A sunroom off the dining room and lower-level rec room offer additional living space. The heart of the home is a beautifully remodeled kitchen that proves great design doesn't require a large footprint. Thoughtfully planned with quality finishes and smart storage solutions—including a pull-out spice rack beside the range—this space is both functional and inviting. Throughout the home, updates have been made with care, preserving its character while enhancing comfort and efficiency. Step outside to discover one of the property's most special features: a deep, private backyard retreat. Enjoy morning coffee or evening gatherings on the composite wood deck surrounded by mature landscaping, established gardens, and abundant shade. Directly adjacent to the Bradford Cinder Path, the yard feels even larger, with the peaceful sounds of birds, neighbors out for a stroll, and children riding bikes serving as a reminder of the vibrant community just beyond your fence line. Located in the sought-after Royal Heights neighborhood, you'll enjoy direct access to the Bradford Cinder Path, nearby Canterbury Elementary, the Royal Heights Community Garden, On the Rise Artisan Breads, and Gigi's on Fairmount. Cedar Lee, University Circle, downtown Cleveland, and the new Trader Joe's coming to University Heights are all just minutes away. Notable updates include: Kitchen Remodel (2014), HVAC (2022), Hot Water Tank (2021), Composite Deck (2021), Gas Fireplace (2024), Roof (2013), Second-Floor Windows (2013), Waterproofing (2008), Sewer & Storm Lines Replaced (2008), Nature Stone Basement Floor (2009), and LeafGuard Gutters (2007).
