Public Remarks: Extensively renovated in 2020, this Beechwood Village home stands out with a rare first-floor primary suite and two generously sized bedrooms upstairs. The bright living room features hardwood floors, a fireplace with a marble-look surround, and a broad wall of windows. The updated kitchen offers gray shaker cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances, a gas range, subway tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, and a peninsula that opens to the dining area and rear deck. The spacious main-level primary suite includes a walk-in closet, double vanity, and glass-enclosed tiled shower, with laundry conveniently located nearby. Upstairs, two generous bedrooms each have a walk-in closet and share a full hall bath. A main-level half bath adds convenience for guests. Outside, enjoy a large deck, flat rear lawn, long driveway, and detached two-car garage. The clean unfinished basement provides abundant storage plus room for a workshop, fitness area, or recreation. Conveniently located near St. Matthews shopping, dining, parks, and major roadways.
