Property Description

This home really shows as beautiful as the photos. This 2+1 bedroom semi, close to McBurney Park, is everything you could want in a home. It’s updated with a high efficiency boiler, newer windows and doors, and extra insulation – but at the same time, it’s retained all the details you can never replicate in a new build. There’s so much that sets this home apart from the standard fare. The yard, for instance, is huge for this area. That alone will pique your interest, but it’s just been professionally landscaped as well. There are interlocking stone pavers, tall ornamental grasses, a pergola, a cedar shed, fresh sod, and mature trees. Inside is no different. It’s got some of the most wonderfully refinished original flooring I’ve seen. The hearth, made of clay brick and limestone, is simply stunning, and the massive posts and beam give a sense that this home will stand for centuries more yet. This is where you’ll find the living room, dining room, and the recently WETT certified wood stove. A half bath is tucked away between the living room and kitchen. The updated kitchen – with new tile backsplash and fresh paint – is in the middle of the house and opens to the side patio. At the back is where you’ll find a room that can be whatever you need. The triple wide, triple glazed patio door make me think it’s best used as a second living room and your connection to the spectacular yard. If a third bedroom’s what you need there’s plenty of space for a bed, and there are blackout blinds too. Upstairs is just as big, and well finished. The Primary fits a king bed with ease, there are two closets with built ins and plenty of space left over for two large dressers. The library, found between the two upstairs bedrooms, is exactly the type of space most homes of this vintage lack. It’s an office, a playroom, an art room, a welcome addition. The second upstairs bedroom is at the other end, and the full, and updated bath can be found in the middle of this floor. One parking spot.
