Property Description
:::Offers Due Saturday 9/6 at 5p::: This wonderful 3 bedroom/1.5 bath Cape Cod with almost 1800 finished square feet is located on a gorgeous tree-lined street in Garfield Park, just minutes from downtown Alger Heights. This home has been very well-maintained with modern updates that don't detract from the home's original vintage style. From the moment you pull into the driveway you will notice the aggregate stone driveway and walking path. Once you've entered the home you will find a beautiful kitchen with plenty of storage and counter space, slide-out shelves in cabinets, and for the chef, there is a recipe holder, cutting board, and knife storage tucked into the architecture to make cooking a dream! The home then opens into the formal dining room, graced with a cozy fireplace. The large living room with cathedral ceilings has many windows that overlook the gorgeous backyard with ample perennials and flowering trees. Don't miss the flowering conifers out back! The entertaining size deck and gazebo gives another dimension of outdoor living space, and the tree house could be used for fun or converted to a small office space. Rounding out the main floor, there is one bedroom and 1/2 bath on the main floor. Heading upstairs you will find 2 large bedrooms each with 2 closets, and one of them being a walk in closet in the primary bedroom, the 2nd floor features a full bath as well. In the lower level there is a great recreation room and plenty of storage. There is also underground sprinkling in front yard only (though owner has never used it). This house is located in a prime spot, with a library at the end of the street and only a block away from downtown Alger Heights where you'll find several restaurants, a brewery, a coffee house and cocktail lounge, a grocery store, a hardware store, and more. You're also in close proximity to several grocery stores, including Harvest Health, Fresh Thyme, D&W, Trader Joe's, Meijer, and many markets and restaurants. You have walkable access to playgrounds, parks, and a nature trail and disc golf course at Garfield Park. Ken-o-Sha Park's hiking trails are just two miles away. Don't miss this house; it will move fast! Don't miss this house, it won't last long! Updates: New furnace - Dec 2023 New roof - Dec 2020 Water heater - July 2020 Freshly painted in the past year New flooring was installed in 2021 (laminate, porcelain) and 2024 (LVP) Flooring types: Hardwood, Porcelain tile, Laminate, Luxury Vinyl plank, Carpet Treehouse - could be used as play space, a quiet and cozy getaway spot, or even office space (electricity)
