Brimming w/ charm & braced by burnished craftsmanship c.1940, this expanded Colonial sits sweetly along a sidewalk-lined street where neighbors wave, gardens thrive, & the pace feels pleasantly nostalgic. Within its timeless facade, 1,716sqft unfold w/ an easy, everyday elegance. The generous living room greets guests w/ HW floors & an accent wall adorned w/ a stately mantled FP, flanked by built-ins for a vestige of vintage virtue. The dining room follows suit w/ its original moldings, twin hutches, & enough grace to make even Tuesday takeout feel formal. The kitchen keeps things practical w/ updated appliances, ample oak cabinetry, double sink, & a half bath that proves period appeal & contemporary convenience can coexist. The rear expansion adds a cozy family room wrapped in built-ins & anchored by a picture window framing the lush, level, fully fenced rear yard. A Dutch door leads from here to the skylit screened porch, meriting morning coffee, evening entertaining, or even eventual kitchen expansion. Upstairs, the roomy primary & 2nd bedrooms each boast walk-in closets while all three feature warm & welcoming HW flooring. Updated systems include younger central AC, water heater, roof, windows, & oil tank; also new paint inside & out as well as a brand-new garage door opener. Steps to Hopkins, Westville Village, Edgewood Park, public transit, & mere minutes to downtown, this traditional treasure delivers community, & an altogether cheerful chapter for its next lucky owner
