Prepare to fall in love with this 5 bed 2 bath home. This designer-driven renovation delivers high-end style at every turn, starting the moment you step onto the charming covered front porch - your new favorite spot to sip coffee, unwind, and watch the world go by. Inside, gleaming hardwood floors flow through a light-filled main level anchored by a show-stopping galley kitchen with breakfast bar and a striking all-stainless appliance package, including a high-end refrigerator. The open living and dining areas create the perfect backdrop for both quiet nights in and lively gatherings. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms offer space for family, guests, or a home office, while the fully finished lower level adds even more flexibility with a full bath, cozy fireplace, and an expansive den ideal for a home theater, playroom, or guest retreat. Central air keeps things comfortable year-round, and out back, a truly massive backyard awaits - a rare find in the city and an entertainer's dream, with room for gatherings, gardening, or simply making it your own private escape. This is a home that has it all: style, space, and a beautiful block to call home.
