About this House

Welcome to the walkability of HomewoodâEUR¦what it is known for! This one is deceiving! From the outside it appears to be the cute cottage of Homewood we all love but inside you will find hardwoods throughout, 4 bedrooms, 3 full updated bathrooms, 3 living spaces and a dedicated office! The spacious, open concept, updated kitchen has a large island overlooking the family room. In the finished basement you will find a living area, office space, additional bedroom and full bathroom. Lastly, the outdoor space is dreamy. From the screened in porch to the shady backyard and firepit area, this home hosts a fun area for company or just a night at home! The one car garage is rare for Homewood. In addition, the driveway is extra wide for parking! Come and see what this precious home situated in a quiet cul de sac is all about! 1.2m to elementary school, 1.5m to Patriot Park, 1.7m to Homewood Park, 1.2m to local favorite restaurants, 1.9m to Homewood library and .3m to GIAN MARCOSâEUR¦need I say more!?
