FIRST TIME on the market in almost 63 years!! Such an OUTSTANDING opportunity!! The same wonderful family owned this home for over 6 decades & the baton of stewardship is ready to be extended to new owners! Its next stewards can bring their vision, imagination & creativity to love on it further! Sweetly nestled on a charming, tree-lined, low-traffic destination street (not a thru-street), this home is a bright, beautiful blank canvas, w/so much more potential than already tapped into, great bones & great flow! Ample natural light streams in from a plethora of large windows, making the home's open floor plan feel even more light & bright. The gorgeous, gleaming hardwood floors are an organic, gracious, warm & inviting foundational element of the home! Decades-old carpeting was recently removed & the original H/W floors were thoughtfully refinished to their stunning luster! Interior walls, ceilings, doors, cabinetry, baseboards & wood trim were all recently freshly painted. New blinds, light fixtures & baseboards, amongst other items, were installed. Kitchen, adjacent laundry room & half bath received lovely, new vinyl plank flooring. Separate spacious inside laundry room has a convenient door leading to the back porch & the 2-car garage w/garage door opener & ample shelving/storage. Backyard is a fabulous ideal blank canvas too, w/a decades-old shed having been torn down to make way for a bigger backyard, which can be designed for modern indoor-outdoor living, morning coffee, cocktail hours, gardening, reading, relaxing & entertaining family & friends year-round! So many more possibilities & exciting due diligence to explore as you see fit! Room for a junior ADU in the B/Y possibly or transformation of the garage into an awesome utilitarian space perhaps (?), since there is a fantastic, long driveway w/room to park several cars. Either scenario would be ideal for a home office or a yoga/pilates/home gym, recording/writing/art studio, arts & crafts room, etc., w/the ADU for teenagers or in-laws, or even tenants to bring in revenue to help subsidize your mortgage even? Bring your own creative vision & imaginative artistry to usher in a new tenure of reinvention & to elevate this home further inside & out to its fullest potential. Convenient proximity to a great variety of dining, shopping, leisure & recreation, access to multiple fwys, transportation routes, airports, schools & parks! Don't miss out on this amazing opportunity! Thank you for your interest!!
