Stylishly updated and move-in ready 3-bedroom/2.5-bath home w/basement located in the heart of Meridian Kessler! All-new interior paint, beautifully detailed trim, and stunning refinished hardwood floors throughout. A warm and inviting entry opens into a spacious front living room, anchored by a newly refinished fireplace with an electric fireplace insert. The open floor plan flows seamlessly into a generous dining room with updated lighting and French doors that lead to the back deck. The remodeled kitchen features a gas range, stainless steel appliances (brand-new dishwasher!), solid surface countertops, and an eat-in breakfast nook with custom built-in bench seating. A stylish half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. All bedrooms include ceiling fans and the primary suite boasts two closets. One full bath offers a walk-in shower with tile flooring and vanity, while the second features a tub/shower combo with beadboard accent walls. The additional bedrooms are generously sized and move-in ready with neutral, calming tones. A large basement adds valuable living space, ideal for a rec/play/exercise room along with a dedicated laundry area and storage. Outside, the fully fenced backyard offers privacy and room to run and play. The oversized 24x23 garage-accessed from the alley-comfortably fits two SUVs and includes space for a workshop. Enjoy multiple outdoor living areas including the back deck, patio, and a spacious covered front porch. Additional highlights include a new water heater, reverse osmosis system, water softener, alarm system, and carbon monoxide detectors. Located just minutes from Newfields, the Children's Museum, and within walking distance of Blue Mind Coffee, the public library, and Saint Joan of Arc School. The unfinished attic offers 784 sf of potential and could be finished to create a third-floor bonus room. This home blends classic charm, modern updates, and an unbeatable location!
