About this home

Entrance and driveway open to 52nd Street. Sellers are saddened to leave this home, but a job transfer calls. This highly admired, English-inspired stone Cape Cod offers exceptional craftsmanship throughout, featuring Douglas fir floors, graceful arches, built-in shelving, six-panel doors, and thoughtfully designed storage niches. The beautifully updated kitchen is equipped with high-end stainless steel appliances and soapstone countertops. Sun-filled living and dining rooms showcase stunning bay windows, while a serene enclosed porch provides the perfect space for working from home or enjoying relaxing afternoons. The main level also includes a comfortable family room overlooking the gorgeous yard, along with a first-floor bedroom and full bath for added flexibility. Upstairs, you'll find two spacious bedrooms with ample closet space and a full bath. The full basement is plumbed for a future bath and offers a recreation room, laundry area, and abundant storage. Outside, the fully fenced yard is filled with beautiful perennials and leads to a two-car garage. Numerous quality upgrades throughout-this is truly a must-see! Seller is offering a $2390 credit at closing to refinish hardwood floors on the first floor.
