About this home

This well built home was obviously custom for a family that loves to entertain. Now it can be yours. Come in from the front door into a gracious formal living room and immediately see a kitchen that is far more open than is typical for a home of this age. The kitchen utilizes its space well and features a double set of ovens, an electric stove, and lots of cabinetry and counter space. The family room is HUGE and even has a wet bar behind louver doors. The master bedroom is enormous and has a pocket door separating it from another bedroom. .. perfect as a nursery or an office. Across the hall are two more bedrooms, currently open to one another but easily privatized if desired. The convenience to Harding Blvd and Scenic Hwy is apparent, but you hear none of the noise from those thoroughfares when inside. The home was modified to bring the laundry area inside, but the mudroom and laundry, though inside, are not included in the 1898 square feet since they are not formally heated or cooled. There is a patio off of the master bedroom and a wonderfully large backyard to enjoy. This brick home has been lovingly maintained and is in move-in condition. Come by 1649 78th Avenue and you will want to COME BUY 1649 78th Avenue!!!
