What's special

Welcome Home to 5216 Ralph Ave in the Covedale Garden District! This charming brick Cape Cod is full of character, combining quality craftsmanship with everyday comfort. Hardwood floors in the living and dining rooms and dining room built-ins add classic charm. The updated kitchen has tile flooring, wood cabinets, and newer appliances. It walks out to a huge deck overlooking a level, private backyard, ideal for entertaining, gardening, pets, or play. The huge first-floor bedroom offers space for a sitting or dressing area. The main level also has an office that could be a 4th bedroom, plus a newly remodeled full bath with a beautiful shower. Upstairs, two huge bedrooms, a full bath, and a full living or entertainment room could serve as an entire private second-floor living space. The finished lower level adds flexible space with a half bath. The oversized attached garage adds everyday convenience. Great location, with charm you won't find in newer homes.
