Public Remarks: Lovely St. Matthews home with a number of delightful amenities. The charming front porch welcomes you home. The lovely living room with large windows, a fireplace, and hardwood flooring is just your preview to the light, neutral palette throughout the house. Coming through the arched doorway to the open dining and kitchen area will make your day. This beautifully updated white kitchen offers granite counters, stainless appliances, a spacious island with excellent storage and extra seating. The sink window looks out into the back yard. Step out into the improved back porch enclosure (8''X20'') including upgraded windows (recently replaced throughout the first floor, tile flooring and shades.) This is another room, for all practical purposes, and a great added space. A French door with side light brings lots of natural light into the hardwood floored dining area. The kitchen and baths are tile floored. There are 2 bedrooms on the 1st floor and a full bath. Upstairs is the primary suite with double closets and open shelving for storage. There is also open shelving in the primary bath for your linens and supplies. And there is a full basement. Sellers are leaving all kitchen appliances and the washer and dryer. Outside there is also a brick patio; the back and 1 side yard are fenced. And there is a full 2 car garage with additional room to park on the driveway! Of course this exceptional location offers great access to restaurants, boutiques, shopping and scenic Seneca and Cherokee Parks, and more, some within walking distance. Sellers love this home, being relocated. Now it can be yours to love!
