Description

This beautifully updated 1930s one-and-a-half-story home blends timeless character with thoughtful modern improvements, ideally situated in a welcoming neighborhood on a quiet street near the Edgcumbe community center and park.
The main level showcases classic charm, including natural woodwork, hardwood floors, coved ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and built-in dining room corner cupboards. The eat-in kitchen features a cozy breakfast nook and has been tastefully updated with white quartz countertops, painted cabinetry, and new red oak hardwood flooring.

A main floor bedroom and full bathroom offer convenience and flexibility for guests or main-level living. The bathroom preserves its vintage appeal with original ceramic tile floor, complemented by a new vanity, updated lighting, and ceramic surround.

Upstairs, warm wood moulding, doors and flooring create a serene retreat, with generous ceiling height in the primary bedroom and an additional off-bedroom study (or nursery) with solid wood 6-panel pocket doors. A spacious upper-level full bath with tub/ shower provides added comfort and privacy also with six panel pocket doors. Three kneewall closets provide abundant storage.

The finished lower level includes a large bedroom that can also function as a family or guest room. A refreshed ¾ bathroom features a new shower surround, vanity, vinyl plank flooring, shiplap ceiling, and fresh paint. A newly painted laundry area with new vinyl plank flooring and dedicated storage room complete the lower level.

Recent exterior updates include all new roof, steel siding, gutters, downspouts and insulation (within the last two years), along with an updated garage featuring a new steel service door and garage door. Fresh sod installed last summer in the fenced backyard with a large raised bed garden.

    "Quick access to major highways. I can usually get to work in about ten minutes, which is great. There is a lot of construction in the area lately on grand and summit, especially a very poor rerouting of a bike lane that is precarious for bikers, drivers, and pedestrians, which is not as great."
