Classic, well-maintained stone-and-siding Colonial in a highly sought-after University Heights neighborhood, the kind of block where neighbors wave from the front step and know each other by name. Inside, beautiful hardwood floors run throughout. The sun-filled living room is anchored by a fireplace framed with built-in bookshelves, and the dining room steps down through a French door to a generous paver patio made for entertaining. The bright white kitchen offers a gas cooktop, wall oven, dishwasher, refrigerator and plenty of cabinet space, plus a dining nook that overlooks the backyard through a large picture window. A first-floor half bath adds everyday convenience. Upstairs are three generously sized bedrooms, all with hardwood floors and one with a charming bay dormer window, along with a full bath. The finished lower level adds a cozy wood-paneled recreation room with a second fireplace, great for movie nights, a playroom or a home office, plus a laundry area and loads of storage. Step outside to your private backyard retreat, with mature evergreens for privacy, a swing set, a storage shed and plenty of room to play. An attached one-car garage and concrete driveway complete the package. Move right in and don’t do a thing! The expensive updates are done: a new boiler and A/C, exterior basement waterproofing, and a clay tile roof built to last for generations. Character, space and a lovely neighborhood in close proximity to schools, places of worship and a new community center being built a block away. Schedule your showing today!
