There is something special about a classic Beaverdale brick. This Tudor has all the character you would expect: the original rounded front door, crystal door knobs, hardwood floors, and those classic arched doorways that make these homes so iconic. The main floor feels cozy and solid, with two bedrooms, a full bath, and an enclosed back porch, perfect for warmer months. Upstairs, the attic is fully finished, giving you a great third bedroom or a flexible space for an office. The basement is practical, too, with a second bathroom (shower included), laundry, and plenty of room to tuck things away. Plus, the two-car garage is spacious, which is a huge find for this neighborhood. It's a well-loved home in a great spot and ready for someone new to make it their own. New furnace and a/c March 2026.
