Ahhh, that curbside charm just draws you in! With a prime location near Matthews, this home balances warmth, functionality and charm with custom architectural touches and thoughtful upgrades. From the moment you enter, the exposed wood beams and wood-burning fireplace set the tone for cozy nights in and relaxed weekends. The kitchen, with its warm travertine tile floors and stainless steel appliances, invites you to linger a little longer over morning coffee or gatherings with friends around the island. Upstairs, hardwood floors flow throughout every bedroom, creating a warm and timeless feel. Both full bathrooms have been thoughtfully upgraded with heated tile floors...the perfect touch for chilly mornings! The primary suite feels like a retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and a custom-designed shower that feels spa-like, yet personal. Outside, the fully fenced backyard and patio offer just the right balance of privacy and space. Whether you’re sipping a beverage under the stars, enjoying a quiet Sunday with a book, or hosting an intimate cookout, this backyard was made for simple, cozy moments. With a new roof in 2024, the freshly aerated/seeded/fertilized front and back yards and plenty of updates throughout, you can move right in and start enjoying everything this home has to offer. Tucked in a quiet neighborhood near Matthews but still close to Charlotte conveniences, it’s the best of both worlds!
