Location, character, and charm! Set on one of Beaverdale’s most desirable streets, this timeless brick two story is one of those rare homes where every space feels intentional with incredible curb appeal to match. Step inside to original hardwood floors, arched entries and a grand staircase that creates a warm first impression. You’ll love the massive formal living room with gas fireplace and huge windows flooding it with natural light… the formal dining flows nicely into the bright, renovated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, modern finishes and ample cabinet space. A bright four season sunroom overlooks the backyard and a private upper level deck is perfect for your morning coffee. Upstairs you’ll also find 3 generously sized bedrooms, built-in storage galore and an updated full bath. The beautifully finished lower level provides a second living room plus large storage/laundry room. The fully fenced backyard is designed for gathering with plenty of green space, a garden, a spacious patio and a deck for grilling!
