A Clifton Heights Hidden Gem with Storybook Charm
Tucked away in the sought-after Clifton Heights neighborhood, this charming 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is the kind of place that feels like a true hidden gem. Full of original character and surrounded by mature trees, it offers the perfect blend of historic charm, thoughtful updates, and an incredible setting overlooking the Clifton Heights Park.
Inside, you’ll find the details that give this home its personality—from wide original trim and a classic brick fireplace to French doors with glass knobs and timeless architectural touches throughout. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated for today’s lifestyle, featuring a huge center island and built-in hutch that make it both functional and inviting. LVP flooring and an updated main bathroom add modern convenience without taking away from the home’s character.
One of the home’s most magical spaces is the sunroom just off the dining room, where French doors open the room to the outdoors. Step outside to a stone patio tucked among the mature trees, creating a private, almost secret-garden feel—an ideal spot for morning coffee, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Just off the dining room, another unique flex space offers endless possibilities and would make a fantastic playroom, hobby room, or creative space.
Outside, the setting is hard to replicate. The home overlooks the Clifton Heights Lake, recently enhanced with lighted fountains that glow in different colors after dark, creating a beautiful evening backdrop. And with the neighborhood park just about 100 yards away, families have easy access to ample play equipment for kids of all ages.
A new fence adds to the outdoor appeal, while the mature landscaping and established trees provide privacy and a sense of tranquility rarely found so close to the heart of the city.
Charming, comfortable, and wonderfully unique, this is more than a house—it’s a home with a story, a setting, and a little bit of magic.
If any offers are submitted the first weekend, please submit by 5:00pm on Tuesday 9/8 with response of 5:00 pm on Wednesday, 9/9. No early responses.
