This 2-bedroom, 1-bath gem is ideal for first-time buyers or those looking to downsize seeking comfort, character, and just the right amount of space to make their own. Tucked away on a quiet street, it's just a short walk to Walnut Hill and Martha Hart Park-perfect for enjoying nature, outdoor activities, and peaceful weekend strolls. Inside, you'll love the warmth of hardwood floors throughout and the sun-filled main living area, where large windows bathe the space in natural light. The full bathroom was tastefully updated with new tile, a modern sink, and a new toilet (2021). The partially finished basement offers flexible space for a family room, playroom, home gym, or office-plus a separate laundry area for added functionality. Additional important upgrades include a natural gas boiler (2021), mini-splits, and new siding (5/2023). Solar is OWNED (no monthly payment and minimal electric bill). Step outside to a private deck that opens to a lush, tree-lined backyard-a peaceful retreat in the spring and summer, ideal for entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing after a long day. With thoughtful updates already completed and room to add your personal touch, 173 Columbia Street is ready to welcome you home.
