Property Description
This impeccably rehabbed property was completed by one of the neighborhood's premier builders with no detail spared. The home offers excellent curb appeal with professionally landscaped front and backyards. The interior features hardwood flooring, magnificent wainscoting, crown molding, and beamed ceilings in the living room. The main level includes a galley kitchen with modern 42-inch cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances, a cozy eating area, two generous bedrooms, and a full bathroom with a tub. The second floor houses a massive primary bedroom designed for a California King bed, an additional bedroom, and an elegant bathroom featuring a rain shower. Situated on a 37-foot-wide lot, the property provides ample backyard space and a two-car garage with a party door and room for patio furniture. A rarity with this home is your very own private alley. Only steps away from Byrne elementary and Normandy Park. This is one the most desired and elite blocks in all of Garfield Ridge.
