Welcome to this Fifth Ward beauty which completed it's full renovation and addition in 2022, making everything new again! From the thoughtfully designed spaces and timeless white oak flooring to its four bedrooms and 3 full baths, this home speaks comfort and character. The main level features an open-concept layout that seamlessly connects the living area with fireplace, dining space and kitchen--complete with quartz countertops, farm-style sink and a gas stove for the cooking enthusiast. Towards the back of the main level, you'll find the serene primary suite with full bath, vaulted ceilings and a private deck. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms and a bright, cheerful full bath featuring double sinks- perfect for busy mornings or a shared space. One of the bedrooms even opens to a large deck, ideal for morning coffee and a quiet moment. The lower level offers a versatile space that can serve as a home office or cozy den, complete with its own full bath- great for guests or remote work. Step outside to a backyard made for entertaining with a charming patio for al fresco dining and a lush green space adorned with a cherry blossom tree and soon to be blooming hydrangeas. And perhaps the best part--tucked out back in addition to the garage is a delightful artist's studio. A haven for creativity or a peaceful retreat.
