About this home
Stunningly renovated half-duplex plus offers the perfect blend of character with modern updates and flexible living space. You'll get the feel of single-family living here with exclusive use of the side yard and your own driveway. Three finished levels plus your own basement storage! Recently gutted and rebuilt- improvements include a new kitchen, new baths, new flooring, new windows, new lighting, mini-splits, and a brand-new 2 car driveway. Sun-filled living room features high ceilings, a ceiling fan, and a mini-split system for year-round comfort, flowing into a beautiful dining room perfect for entertaining. The gorgeous new kitchen boasts quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, an extra-deep sink, and abundant cabinet space. A stylish half bath completes the main level. The second floor offers a spacious primary bedroom and an impressive spa-inspired bath with double vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. A generously sized second bedroom and an additional versatile bonus space provide endless possibilities for a home office, custom walk-in closet, reading nook, or exercise area. The third level features another spacious bedroom with high ceilings and a bonus flex room, ideal as a 4th bedroom, guest suite, office, or playroom.

Additional highlights include an approximately 10-year-old boiler -gas heat -and a 2-year transferable builder's warranty. No HOA or condo fee here; each side splits the master insurance policy.
