Journey with me as you pull off Bellevue Ave onto Kent Rd. and you recognize this section better known as Belmont Park; a unique and enchanting area. Having a circle roadway access provides that the development is somewhat independent and privately located away from the rest of the hustle and bustle of life. The tree lined street brightened with obscure street lights provides an ambiance and security one desires for their night-time peace of mind. In the approach to 3520 W. Kent Rd parcel, one will be pleased to find the surrounding properties are well-maintained and ultimately display an equal concern to property value. Next, pull into the paved driveway of this distinctive property and it is comfortable to see why, many years ago, this home was the model unit for the ongoing development in its era. As a master craftsman, the current owner has spent countless hours laboring to preserve and restore exterior finishes and landscaping; thus adding value to this perfect house. Upon your entry, one is pleased to experience once again, the complete satisfaction of master craftsmanship. The original hardwood floors are refinished, the plaster walls have been detailed and painted, the stairwell and original moldings have been preserved and perfectly reworked. Proceed through the bright dining room and into the kitchen to find NO room for disappointment. The original solid wood cabinets have been refinished to ensure a modern feel combined with additional cabinets added to seamlessly expand to meet today's larger kitchen demands. From this room, enjoy the passage to a wonderful and removed rear yard complete with utility shed, wandering slate walkway, an endearing deck, brick barbeque and flowering pergola to shade your outdoor experience. This feature is nothing short of having your own reserved Longwood Garden exhibit! Also off the kitchen is what the owner considers their "surprise" room. .. this converted garage space was previously finished to provide more living area. Likewise, changes here could easily return full use of the designed garage. Although we could continue on with all the details, this home is immaculately kept and one to personally experience. Spacious bedrooms, original hardwood floors, second floor ceramic tile bath, partial bath in basement, efficient gas fired furnace for heat and gas hot water, are just a few of the many other treasures offered here. Please do not wait to schedule your showing.
