Quality-built and beautifully updated home in the historic Ludlow neighborhood! This 1940s brick home perfectly blends original character with modern updates, just one block from the newly built Ludlow School and walkable to parks, Shaker Square, library, grocery, shopping, and rapid transit. The sun-filled main floor features a formal living room with a cozy gas fireplace and replacement architectural casement windows that retain the classic Tudor harlequin mullion design. The dining room opens to a covered patio and backyard, ideal for entertaining. The updated eat-in kitchen showcases designer-selected cabinets, stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and new flooring, while the den/office provides a private work-from-home space. A convenient half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill full bath, and a third bedroom includes access to the rear rooftop balcony, with a second full bath off the hall. The finished third floor offers a fourth bedroom and a third full bath, adding over 400 sq. ft. of flexible living space. Home improvements include $15,000–$20,000 in landscaping, with $10,000 invested in the front yard featuring trees, shrubs, birch trees, wildflowers, Japanese maple trees, bird baths, lanterns, and new awnings—making this home a certified wildlife habitat! Additional updates include central air, refinished quarter-sawn oak floors, Anderson replacement windows, updated 200 amp electrical service, replacement gutters, downspouts, and fascia. The fenced yard provides privacy and space for outdoor enjoyment. This Ludlow gem offers the perfect combination of historic charm, modern comfort, and thoughtful upgrades—ready for you to move in and enjoy!
