Welcome to 3525 Silsby Rd; located in the heart of University Heights, this charming and beautifully updated Colonial perfectly blends timeless character with modern design. From the moment you arrive, the home's classic brick and stone facade creates warm and inviting curb appeal. A custom red oak front door built and installed in 2020 adds a striking focal point, while the rebuilt front stoop (2025) and newer roof (2019) offer peace of mind and lasting value. Inside you'll find rich hardwood floors flowing throughout. The living room is anchored by a stately decorative fireplace, creating an elegant yet comfortable gathering space. The modern kitchen features exposed brick accents and a breakfast bar, perfect for casual mornings or entertaining guests. The first floor also offers the convenience of a combined laundry and mudroom, along with a powder room. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bathroom. The third floor offers flexibility, featuring a private fourth bedroom complete with its own full bathroom; ideal as a secluded primary suite, guest retreat, or private home office. The finished basement expands your living space even further, providing the perfect setting for a rec room, home gym, or media area, while still offering additional unfinished space for utilities and storage. Outside, the backyard is designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A fully fenced yard provides privacy, while the enclosed rear porch offers a comfortable three-season retreat (four if you're brave!). Just beyond, a stamped concrete patio creates the perfect setting for outdoor dining and summer gatherings. Completing the property is a newer, large two-car garage, providing ample parking and additional storage. Beautifully maintained, thoughtfully updated, and ideally located near shopping, dining, parks, and all that University Heights has to offer, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial is ready to welcome its next chapter.
