Set on a coveted street and prime corner lot, this exceptional Heights home is full of designer-level updates while maintaining its flawless character and charm. Hardwood floors, extensive millwork and abundant natural light carry throughout, while a dedicated study off the entry offers flexible space for work or everyday living. Updates include the roof (2025), kitchen, and butler’s pantry (featuring farmhouse sink, quartz countertops, updated backsplash and large island). The spacious primary suite opens to a private balcony, while the reimagined ensuite bath showcases Carrara marble, dual vanities, designer lighting, soaking tub and glass walled shower. Expansive fenced grounds feature high-end artificial turf for entertaining and play as well as a double-wide driveway for ease of access – a rarity in the Heights. A custom-built, climate-controlled exterior accessory space provides additional space not included in the home’s listed square footage - a bonus to this beautiful home.
