Welcome to this beautifully remodeled 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom 1880s home where modern updates blend seamlessly with timeless character. Exceptional curb appeal welcomes you with mature landscaping, terraced retaining walls, colorful gardens, and a charming wraparound porch. Inside, new hickory hardwood floors complement original crown molding and trim. The remodeled chef’s kitchen features granite countertops, center island, abundant cabinetry, stainless steel appliances including a Wolf dual-fuel cooktop & range, beverage station, beverage refrigerator, and 7x4 pantry incorporating the original dining room pocket door. The main level offers a spacious dining room, light-filled living room with bay window, inviting front sitting room with electric fireplace and built-in bench, versatile office/flex space with built-ins, and convenient half bath with heated floors. A large mudroom/laundry room features a front-loading washer and dryer, granite counter and sink, cabinetry, bench, and hooks with access to the backyard and detached 2-car garage. The fully fenced backyard provides privacy, extensive patio space, and raised garden beds. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms feature original hardwood floors and ample closet space, including a beautiful primary suite with electric fireplace, built-ins, backyard views, dual closets, and access to an updated full bath with heated floors, oversized soaking tub, walk-in shower, dual sinks, and illuminated mirrors. A second ¾ bath serves the remaining bedrooms. The unfinished lower level offers excellent storage and future finishing potential. Despite its 1880s construction, the home offers the modern comfort of whole-house air conditioning. Additional updates include a new wood front door, tile entryway, iron front stair railing, carpeting on both staircases, and four new windows. Ideally located near Grand Avenue, with restaurants, bars, parks, shopping, and other amenities within walking distance. A wonderful blend of character, thoughtful updates, comfort, and convenience!
