Step inside this charming corner-lot bungalow in the heart of Ardsley Park offering 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths on a spacious lot. This home is full of character, featuring a large living room with a cozy fireplace, beautiful dental molding, and oak hardwood floors throughout the main level, with updated tile flooring in the kitchen. Major improvements provide peace of mind, including a new HVAC system (2021), new windows (2016), and a water heater just three years old. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with stylish cabinetry, quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, and multiple windows that flood the space with natural light. Two bedrooms are located downstairs and share a full bath. One of the bedrooms is currently being used as a den but offers a spacious closet and flexibility for guests or a home office. Upstairs, you’ll find a generously sized third bedroom along with a second full bath featuring a beautifully tiled shower and ample space. Enjoy outdoor living on the screened porch overlooking the large, fenced backyard complete with a small pond and waterfall feature. A one-car garage with an additional parking pad adds convenience to this exceptional Ardsley Park property.
