Discover the vintage and modern beauty of this 1902 historic home in the coveted Crocus/Summit Hill neighborhood. A thoughtful and well designed main floor renovation in 2022 made efficient use of the space offering better flow and modern upgrades - all while retaining the warmth and original character. The kitchen was transformed into a space that feels timeless and appropriate...it seamlessly blends the love for modern high end finishes with the love for simple lines and classic woodwork. The kitchen features Calacatta quartz counters with marble backsplash, custom built & designed cabinetry with a floor to ceiling pantry, breakfast bar, champagne bronze fixtures, and stainless appliances. As part of the renovation, the rear footprint was expanded to add a mudroom and powder room with walkout. Enjoy an elegant shared living and dining space off the kitchen featuring a beamed ceiling and an abundance of natural light. Move through the spacious foyer highlighted by an open staircase to the second story. The second story holds two generous sized bedrooms - both offering large walk-in closets with organizers, plus a full bath, and convenient laundry room. A unique primary suite spans the entire 3rd story with dual baths and a walk-thru shower. Additional living and entertaining space can be found in the finished basement family room - also doubles as the 4th bedroom with an egress window and built-in Murphy bed! The exterior was also fully renovated in 2019 with new James Hardie siding, trim & fascia, gutters, doors, insulation and a patio. You'll love the welcoming front porch, original leaded glass windows, hardwood floors main & up, vintage architecture and high ceilings... plus a cozy and private backyard, 2 car garage with solar panels, 4 unit mini split with heat pump & AC, hot water in-floor radiant heat, gas water heater, and all above ground windows have been updated (minus stained glass & large window facing porch). Ultra convenient urban location within walking distance to everything you need - a mix on entertainment and dining options on Grand Ave, stroll down the tree lined sidewalks 2 blocks away to the new Linwood Community Recreation Center with a park and playground, Summit Community Gardens, schools, grocery, and bus line. You will appreciate all the desirable characteristics, strong sense of community, proximity to schools and parks, and the timeless appeal. LIVE & PLAY in this gem of a neighborhood!
