Property Description
Where charm meets thoughtful updates and a backyard that quietly steals the show. A very well cared 3 bedroom, 2 full bath home has been lovingly renovated over the years and it shows in all the right ways. Hardwood floors run through the main living spaces, leading you into a fully remodeled kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a layout that makes everyday cooking and entertaining feel effortless. The fully finished basement expands your living space with room to relax, work, or host, anchored by a cozy fireplace that makes movie nights and game days feel just right. It is the kind of bonus space buyers are always looking for and rarely find done this well. Step onto the expansive deck and take in an amazing fully enclosed backyard that feels more like a private retreat than a suburban lot. Framed by mature trees and peaceful tree lined views, this yard offers both openness and privacy. The spacious lawn provides plenty of room to garden, play, or simply unwind, while the enclosed setting gives added comfort and security. A convenient storage shed adds functionality without sacrificing charm, perfect for tools, bikes, or seasonal décor. Morning coffee on the deck comes with birdsong and green views. Summer evenings invite grilling, laughter, and long conversations under the trees. It is the kind of outdoor space that truly extends your living area and makes this home stand apart. The home sits on a generous 9,352 square foot lot and has been meticulously maintained, offering peace of mind along with style. Located on a quiet street in Berea, you are close to parks, shops, dining, and everything that makes this community so easy to love. This is not just a house. It is a home that has been lived in, cared for, and ready for its next chapter.
