Public Remarks: Your beautiful Saint Matthews home awaits! This 4 bedroom/2 full bath brick cape cod is situated in close proximity to Seneca Park. Also nearby are the popular restaurants and shops along the Lexington Rd corridor and Frankfort Avenue. Added bonuses are the partially finished walkout/walk-up basement, a 1-car detached garage, and a large, partially covered deck, added by the current owners. As you enter the foyer, you will find dark hardwood flooring which runs throughout the main living areas on the first and second floors. Even the staircase showcases beautiful hardwood treads. The sellers have also removed walls to create a more open floor plan on the main level. The kitchen offers stainless steel appliances and maple cabinetry, and a window above the sink overlooking the backyard. The dining area is open to the kitchen and great room, providing the perfect spot for sharing meals and socializing with loved ones or guests, and the chef can be included in the fun! Or serve up some pancakes at the breakfast bar! The great room features a gas fireplace, flanked by 2 large windows that let in the sunlight. Down the hall are two of the bedrooms and a shared full bathroom. With 2 more bedrooms and another full bath upstairs, you can have your choice of primary retreats; one of which has a large walk-in closet. The second-floor bathroom has been beautifully updated, to include a lovely, tiled shower with a frameless glass sliding door. Downstairs in the basement is a large family room/recreation room, complete with a wet bar, barstool seating, lots of counter space, cabinetry, glass shelving and a small refrigerator. On the opposite side of the basement is a huge unfinished storage area, which also houses the clothes washer and dryer. The basement also has an outside entry door, which leads you up the steps to the fully fenced backyard and relaxing patio area. Enjoy the upcoming holiday season in your comfortable new home!
