Property Description

Set majestically above Royal Avenue, this all-brick Cape Cod is nestled into a beautifully wooded and treed lot, offering timeless character in a truly memorable setting. Lush ground cover and natural stone steps harken back to an era when craftsmanship ruled the day, creating a charming approach to this rare find. At the top of the steps, a private wooden deck provides the perfect spot to admire the home's classic brickwork before entering through an inviting enclosed porch. Inside, an ample eat-in kitchen offers unique built-in storage features and plenty of room for everyday meals. The spacious shared living and dining area is highlighted by warm hardwood flooring, while the living room features a wood-burning fireplace with a distinctive wooden mantel and ceramic tile hearth. Two sizable main-floor bedrooms also feature hardwood floors and share a nicely updated full bath with ceramic tile flooring, a shower tub combo with tile surround, and updated vanity. Upstairs, an oversized primary bedroom creates a private retreat with generous storage, including a walk-in closet. The partially finished basement adds even more usable living space with a recreation room featuring built-in cabinetry, a wet bar, and a second wood-burning fireplace. A convenient full bath with a low-threshold shower adds functionality to the lower level, while a dedicated laundry and storage area provides plenty of practical space. Garage and driveway access directly from the basement make coming and going especially convenient. With its classic all-brick exterior, mature and wooded surroundings, inviting outdoor spaces, hardwood floors, two fireplaces, flexible living areas, and proximity to a myriad of Metro Parks, this one-of-a-kind Cape Cod blends enduring craftsmanship, character, and everyday comfort. Its natural setting offers privacy, while a thoughtful layout provides spaces to gather and relax. From the stone staircase to the cozy fireplaces, character is found throughout this gem.
