Some homes just feel right the moment you walk in. 5516 Cedar Ave is one of them. Set on a peaceful, tree-lined street, this beautifully updated brick twin greets you with undeniable curb appeal and a new roof (2023). Step through the front door and the checkered marble entry floor sets the stage for the warmth and character that unfolds throughout — custom millwork, built-in shelving, a staircase bench, and graceful archways that connect each room with a sense of flow and intention. The kitchen is a true showstopper, finished with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a pantry — the kind of space that makes cooking feel like a pleasure. New hardwood floors and recessed lighting carry through the rest of the home, all the way up to four spacious bedrooms, a gorgeous hall bath, and a primary suite with its own private bathroom and generous closet space. The finished basement adds even more versatility for whatever your lifestyle calls for. This is a home with soul, style, and space to spare.
