Public Remarks: This AMAZING HOME in the HEART of ST MATTHEWS is a MUST SEE and is FILLED with UPDATES! As you enter, you will immediately notice the BEAUTIFUL original hardwood floors, SPACIOUS living room with gas fireplace and abundant natural light. This area flows nicely into the large dining room and Florida/sitting room with open concept features, recently added ceramic tile flooring and a custom shade to separate the areas when desired. The UPDATED KITCHEN FEATURES acacia wood butcherblock counters w/GORGEOUS black walnut stain, subway tile backsplash, stainless appliances/gas stove, updated tile flooring, farmhouse sink, white cabinets w/updated hardware, and great nook for cafe table. BOTH FULL BATHS ARE NEWLY UPDATED with INCREDIBLE custom tile showers, NEW flooring/ vanities/lighting/paint... and toilets. The upstairs bedroom features a walk-in closet and spans the length of the home! This area could make an amazing primary suite (see agent notes for information on possibility of adding bath upstairs). The basement has a room which was professionally finished with recessed lights, large closet and has 2 large hopper windows. It is currently used as a bedroom but has not been counted in bedroom count due to the height of the windows. Enjoy entertaining or relaxing on the 2 decks that overlook the private/fully fenced back yard. Seller offering 1 yr limited home warranty valued at $425.
Heart of St. Matthews! Wonderful brick home with charm of older home, conveniences of newer! Convenient to shopping, excellent restaurants, expressways, schools, hospitals, and walking distance to Shelbyville Road and a bus line. Privacy is provided with your 6' fence and location on a street with limited traffic. Limited maintenance with this Brick, vinyl and aluminum trim home which includes many updates! This wonderful home is so much larger than it appears from the street. An addition on the back of the home includes a great den/family room and a full bath. The 2nd floor was finished as a huge bedroom with a walk-in closet or great open room which could be office, children's play area, 'man cave' or just a wonderful get away area. The formal living room (21' x 13') includes refinished hardwood floors, a large picture window, and a fireplace with tile surrounding and a wood mantle. The formal dining room is 12' x 13' with good wall space for larger pieces of furniture. You'll love the light and bright feel created by the replacement thermopane windows which tilt for easy cleaning. Hardwood floors have been refinished, kitchen was updated with raised panel oak finish cabinets which include a built-in pantry. Relax and enjoy your Trex (no maintenance) decks and the huge hot tub. Children will love the Hardwood bark chip area where a swing set, slide, etc can be installed (and if preferred, a concrete pad under wood chips is great for a basketball goal). For your convenience, the brick buffer wall behind your home includes a door to allow easy access to local restaurants and shopping. Basement is unfinished offering potential for expansion by purchaser. Roof was replaced in 2006 or 2007. Cat 5 phone lines installed-control box for all electronics in basement. HVAC replaced 2003-2006.
