Public Remarks: This beautiful St. Matthews Cape Cod live large with rare features for this area! This lovely home boasts 3 bedrooms (and a 4th if you'd like in lower level), 3 full baths and 2300+ square feet of living and entertaining space, plus many updates and added features. The inviting first floor features the living and dining room, updated kitchen with gas range, granite countertops, and matching appliances. There are also two bedrooms and a full bath. Gorgeous original gleaming hardwood floors abound. The entire second floor is the primary bedroom with ensuite bath and its own new HVAC system. The lower level is simply WOW-a beautifully finished 600 square foot entertaining room, plus that space being used as a 4th bedroom with attached full bath. Or you could use that room as an office. There is a laundry room with utility sink and a full refrigerator/freezer. Both washer and dryer to remain as well as the refrigerator/freezer. Extra shelf space as well! Mechanicals are in an easy to access unfinished area with additional storage. No excuses not to keep the filters regularly changed! Out the back French doors off the dining room is a large covered patio with pet-proof screening and roll-down shades that overlooks the beautiful back yard enclosed by garden fencing. Outside you will find new landscaping, well-trimmed mature trees, a driveway gate leading to a newly sided one-car garage and attached carport large enough for a mid-sized SUV both meant to protect your vehicles from the elements! All new windows, a new front door and freshly painted aluminum siding just add to the charm and value. This house is just minutes away from all major roadways, but retains that cozy neighborhood feeling on a beautiful, tree lined street. Don't miss out on the opportunity to live in the greatest area Louisville has to offer! Please note all appliances stay including washer, dryer and lower level side by side refrigerator/freezer.
