    What's special

    From the moment you step onto the front porch, it's clear this 1928 home is something special. Brimming with charm and bathed in natural light, the interior offers a bright, happy energy that's hard to find. The main level features an effortless flow, including a spacious living and dining area framed by large windows and soaring high ceilings that create an incredible sense of scale and airiness throughout. The updated white kitchen is a chef's delight with stainless appliances, connecting seamlessly to a cozy lounge area and a convenient half bath. Upstairs, you'll find three comfortable bedrooms and two full baths. The primary suite is a true standout and a rare find for a home of this vintage. This retreat offers the luxury of its own private bathroom and a walk-in closet-providing a level of convenience and privacy that is hard to come by in a classic build. The surprises continue outside with "Suite G," a finished garage space. Whether you envision a quiet home office, a dedicated workout studio, or a creative escape, this flexible bonus area adapts to your lifestyle. The property is professionally landscaped, creating a beautiful backdrop for outdoor enjoyment. Positioned on a picturesque street, the location is unbeatable. A 5 minute walk from the Noroton Heights train station, putting transit, local shops, and dining favorites all within easy reach. With its perfect blend of character and modern updates, this is a home that truly offers the best of both worlds.
