UNDER contract and scheduling private showings for non-home sale contingent back up offers: You'll love this quaint 3-4 BR, 3.5 bathroom Cape Cod perched atop a lovely, deep lot in a peaceful yet urban setting in the Highlands. This home has an incredibly private backyard with outstanding entertainment spaces like a deck, patio, fire pit, and excellent side yard (recently fenced). Only Royal and Eastern use the private alley, a neighborly micro community full of activity and friendships. This home had a FULL remodel in 2014 and has received numerous updates detailed in improvements. On the first floor, you'll appreciate a first-floor primary bedroom with a luxurious ensuite bathroom with a large soaking tub, glass shower, and elevated double vanity with gorgeous cabinetry and fixtures. The bedroom has a walk-in closet, recently outfitted with California closet built-ins. The open, light-infused first-floor layout is excellent, with a living room and an adjacent glass-enclosed sunroom flowing effortlessly to a dining area and kitchen. The well-appointed kitchen has a large granite island and countertops, stainless steel appliances, a five-burner gas stove, lovely cabinetry, soft close drawers, and wood flooring, unifying the first floor. This quiet hidden gem of a street, close to parks, expressways, and Highlands shopping and restaurants, is between the Calvary Cemetery and Eastern Parkway. The cemetery is a private and peaceful place to walk and is accessible via the back entrance on Barrett Avenue. This home has a 2-car detached garage with excellent alley access from both sides, which exits to Barret and Eastern. MAJOR updates include 2023: AC (1st floor) & HVAC (2nd floor); Water Heater (2019). 12 mo LGE has been a low $225/month.
