Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years, this home showcases an expanded kitchen with newer countertops, cabinetry, appliances, and fixtures that flow seamlessly into a spacious dining area—perfect for entertaining or just everyday living. The rich original hardwood floors ground the space, while the elegant authentic Tiffany light fixture (per seller) and others add timeless character to this bygone era. Both Deco-style bathrooms have been stylishly updated with modern finishes, featuring a subway-tiled walk-in shower on the main level and a marble-tiled walk-in shower upstairs. The renovated second floor includes a spacious primary suite with double vanities and a large walk-in closet. A rear laundry room creates an ideal drop-zone entry, and a durable metal roof offers long term energy savings. Enjoy a fully fenced private backyard, off-street parking pad, and the added value of a city approved permit for a future detached garage. Easy access to downtown, New Circle Road, and an unbeatable walkable lifestyle—this beautiful home truly stands out!!
