Welcome to 8140 Zenith Avenue South, a cozy (yet spacious) residence nestled in the heart of West Bloomington and with easy access to shopping, freeways, restaurants, parks and more! This delightful home offers a perfect blend of comfort and style, making it ideal for modern family living. Step inside to discover an inviting layout that seamlessly connects the living spaces.
The sellers have made numerous updates to enhance this home, including updating all main level window coverings, removing wallpaper, painting the entire house (including the brick to update the gorgeous fireplace), installing gutters, updating all appliances, converting electricity from fuses to circuit breakers, replacing carpet with new flooring in the lower level family room and bedroom, completing a total basement renovation to living areas, installing a UV air purifier in the furnace, and repairing the chimney and flashing.
One of the standout features of this home is the incredible family room, conveniently located off the kitchen. This spacious, light & bright area is perfect for both relaxation and entertaining and has a cozy gas fireplace that adds warmth and ambiance to the space. The open design ensures a seamless flow between the family room and the kitchen, making it easy to stay connected with family and guests while preparing meals.
The lower level of this home presents a fantastic opportunity to expand your living space. With the potential to add a fourth bedroom or leave it as it is, this area can easily accommodate a private guest suite. Additionally, the newly finished bathroom and family room area on the lower level offer a fresh and modern touch, making it an ideal spot to get away from it all.
So much storage in lower level. Enjoy the fully fenced backyard with peony bushes & access to the extra large garage with workshop. Walking distance to Northcrest Park, Girard Park, & Washburn Elementary and its playground.
