Step up to the recently updated concrete front porch (2021) and into a bright, airy living & dining area flooded with natural light. The home's beautiful hardwood floors, classic crown molding & charming built-ins. A kitchen you will never want to leave! Featuring luxurious custom soft-close cabinetry, custom spice drawers, a custom hood vent, open shelving, stainless steel appliances (including a new oven in 2026) and HEATED FLOORS! The spacious primary bedroom features the ultimate convenience of an included washer/dryer combo unit right in the room, with the full en-suite bath separated by a designated office/den space tucked perfectly in between. Upstairs, the second bedroom has what could be a massive closet extension to the existing walk-in. To top it all off, the upper level has a convenient 3/4 bathroom! Downstairs, usable storage, a sump pump with recent waterproofing & tiling which includes an active radon mitigation system, a SECOND washer/dryer set (2026, also included), & a top-tier on-demand tankless water heater, brand-new furnace & A/C; all installed in 2026! A fully enclosed, newer cedar privacy fence (2021), a handy storage shed (included!), a 1-stall detached garage with a newer concrete floor, insulation, and drywall (2021), and additional private parking right off the back alley! This home also boasts energy-efficient Pella double-hung windows, a 5-year-old sewer line replacement at the street, and a Leaf Guard gutter system for those mature trees!
