Captivating Cape Cod in the heart of St Matthews, just three blocks from Seneca Park. Upon entering the house you are greeted by the bright refinished original hardwood floors, with a cozy, large living room with recessed dimmable lighting and gas burning fireplace wrapped in shiplap. Directly off the living room is your modern home office and brand new laundry room with a door that leads to the side porch. Continue to the dining room with lots of southern charm and natural light - you won't want to miss the wood ceiling and large picture windows in both the dining room and the living room. Continue to the kitchen with tile flooring, granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and gas range. Two first floor bedrooms with lots of character and a jack and Jill full bathroom that has a hand crafted wood countertop with double sinks. Standard guest room closets have been upgraded to larger, more organized closet space. Just before you head upstairs to the primary suite, you'll pass the half back wrapped in shiplap, tile flooring, and a custom made vanity. As you head upstairs you will quickly notice no details were spared as you grab onto the live wood handrail and make your way into a primary suite we're sure you'll never forget. On the left you'll find the primary bedroom with vaulted ceilings, a built in window seat, and hidden storage behind the shiplap wall. Into the hallway is the primary bathroom with two vanities, lots of storage, Carrara marble floors, and Carrara marble walk-in shower inclosed with glass doors. Just past the primary bath you'll find a primary living room (could be used as a nursery or a 4th bedroom) with a built in desk, shiplap accent wall, and vaulted ceilings. There is a large walk in closet directly off this room that has separate storage behind primary closet. The walkout basement is unfinished, however, has been waterproofed and has one corner of the basement drywalled with recess lighting.
Out back is a screened in porch that is connected to the side porch, new concrete patio and new landscaping with river rock throughout for a low maintenance back yard. Plenty of parking is provided with a 9 year old two car garage, large parking pad out front, and driveway behind the home on Willis Ave. Home was also re-appraised within the last month. This home has been well loved and cared for and you do not want to miss the opportunity to own this turn-key home, schedule your viewing today!
