Welcome to this timeless brick Cape in the heart of Kenmore, a home showcasing the craftsmanship and enduring architectural charm of its era. From the detailed brickwork and full brick garage to the stately front entry, every detail reflects character and quality. Inside, the bright living room features a brick-surround wood-burning fireplace alongside a large picture window filling the space w/natural light. The kitchen opens to the dining area and includes oak cabinetry and a suite of appliances, in addition to a peninsula that separates the cooking space from the dining area. Two first-floor bedrooms offer hardwood floors (under carpeting) and ample closet space – one w/dual closets. The hallway includes a built-in linen closet, while the full bath features the original tub w/full tile surround, tile flooring and linen closet. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms offer deep closets, accompanied by a half bath accented w/a charming circular window and convenient eave storage. The basement provides versatile bonus areas w/built-ins, a wet bar and laundry room w/washer and dryer included. Upgrades include boiler (2020), hot water tank (2020), 100amp electrical service, newer concrete driveway, architectural roof and sump pump as well as vinyl replacement windows throughout. Set on an unusually deep lot for Kenmore, this solid brick Cape combines classic character w/the potential for updates, offering a home that’s ready to be refreshed and personalized! Conveniently located near major amenities, restaurants and more – it’s the ideal blend of charm, space and accessibility.
