Welcome to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom single-family home, located on a friendly and quiet, tree-lined street in the highly desirable Edgewater neighborhood. Originally built in 1897, this home seamlessly blends classic architectural charm with modern convenience. Many original details have been carefully preserved, including rich hardwood floors, interior doors, and trim, while thoughtful updates ensure comfort throughout. The home boasts modern features like central heat and air, a central humidifier, newer water heater, and 200amp electrical service, providing all the amenities you need for today's lifestyle. The heart of the home, the kitchen, was completely gutted and remodeled in 2018, offering sleek finishes including quartz countertops, upgraded appliances, and ample counter space with breakfast bar for both cooking and entertaining. A dedicated dining room space is a perfect place to gather round for family dinners. The living room has been enhanced with custom shelving and a vintage fireplace, creating a cozy, inviting atmosphere. In the family room, a large sliding door leads out to the deck and patio, creating a seamless flow for entertaining, while recessed lighting and custom window treatments add a modern touch. Upstairs, the primary suite features a newly added closet, space for a king sized bed and nightstands. The updated and expanded bathroom includes a double vanity and custom-painted clawfoot tub, perfect for relaxation. Bedrooms two and three are great spaces as well. A fully finished attic, completed in 2020, offers a tremendous flexible space that can be used for a variety of purposes-whether as a home office, playroom, or creative retreat. The partially finished basement includes a custom live-edge bar, ideal for hosting friends or enjoying a quiet evening in as well as custom storage shelving and newer top of the line washer and dryer. The exterior of the home is equally impressive, with a newer front door, roof, siding, a bird bath fountain, and windows that enhance the home's curb appeal. A charming front porch welcomes you to the home, while the large, fully cedar-fenced backyard offers privacy and tranquility. Professionally landscaped, the front and back yards include raised vegetable garden beds for those who love to grow their own produce as well as in ground sprinkler system. The spacious patio is perfect for summer barbecues or simply relaxing outdoors. The property also features a fully rebuilt 2-car detached garage, providing both storage and parking. Additional upgrades include a flood and sewage protection tank, as well as updated exterior stairs leading to the basement. This stunning home offers the perfect combination of historic charm and modern updates, making it an absolute gem in the Edgewater neighborhood on a highly sought after street that hosts 2 outstanding block parties a year.
