This 1950s all-brick 3 bedroom, 1 bath cape cod has been thoughtfully updated and well-maintained by the current owner of 11 years with convenience, comfort, and energy efficiency in mind. You will first notice the flat yard with mature trees shading the front yard. Step inside to the updated kitchen with professionally painted cabinets, quartz countertops, newer flooring, and a matching suite of appliances. Continue into the dining room that opens into a large living room with a wood burning fireplace and plenty of natural light. The back of the house features the two first floor bedrooms, and bathroom with updated fixtures, newer flooring, extra deep linen closet, and professionally refinished tile. The first floor features oversized woodwork and updated light fixtures / ceiling fans. Upstairs, you will find a large room that spans the entire length of the house perfect for a bedroom, studio, office, or family room. There is a newly installed mini-split upstairs to keep the room at the perfect temperature. The basement is unfinished with abundant built-in shelving, a laundry area with laundry sink, and room for a home gym. The Carrier HVAC with 95% efficient furnace and variable speed fan is still under warranty for five more years. All the windows have been replaced in the last five years, with noise reduction double-pane glass in the first and second floor windows. The exterior doors are both steel insulated and have newer storm doors. The open back yard features a Tuff Shed, natural screening, two concrete patios, and patio lighting. This home is just steps away from the scenic trails of Iroquois Park, making it easy to find time to enjoy nature. With winter weather right around the corner, you will appreciate the flat driveway, and Palatka Road is promptly cleared of ice and snow by the city. There is also a stone turnaround in the front yard for ease of exit onto the street. Don't miss your opportunity to make this home yours!
