Welcome home to this classic ranch with a rare, full basement on a half-acre, flat lot in the sought after Historic Avondale Estates neighborhood - just a block from Avondale Lake! This home has been meticulously maintained and renovated over the years, including a feature and renovation on HGTV's Property Brothers in 2014! Step inside and be greeted by hardwood floors throughout the home, an abundance of natural light thanks to the home's many windows, and an open-concept floor plan. The living room is the perfect spot for relaxing and gathering around the fireplace with friends and family. The kitchen is open to the living room and features a gas stove, kitchen island, pantry, and door leading out to the screened-in porch. A spacious dining room is ready for all your dinner parties or quiet nights sharing a meal with loved ones. Just off the living room is a sunroom featuring a wall full of windows and exposed brick currently used as a home office making the ideal work from home setup! The primary suite is on the main floor and features 4 closets - yes, 4 closets - storage is not an issue here! The ensuite bathroom is an oasis with dual vanities, shower, and large soaking tub overlooking the private backyard. There is a door to the screened-in porch from the primary suite enhancing the indoor/outdoor liveability of this home. Two other spacious bedrooms and a second bathroom complete the main floor. Downstairs is a finished basement - something rare in Avondale Estates! The basement is extremely versatile - it can be used as a living area, play room, or a guest suite/fourth bedroom as there is a third, full bathroom with high end finishes. Oh, and no issues running out of hot water here with your tankless water heater! You can also finally get rid of that storage unit you've been paying for as the basement has an unfinished section totally encapsulated and able to hold all of your holiday decor, kayaks, furniture, old yearbooks, and so much more! And don't forget the large, flat, fenced-in yard perfect for kids, pets, and summer parties (the property line goes back even further than where the fence is!). Located on one of the most loved streets in Avondale Estates, this home has so much to offer. Welcome home!
