Property Description
Welcome to 2547 Collins Street, a thoughtfully renovated 2-bedroom, 1-bath home on a quiet street just steps from POPS Dog Park and Playground and within easy walking distance of some of the area's best coffee shops, breweries, bars, restaurants, and public transit-with quick access to I-95. Inside, the main level offers a bright, open-concept layout filled with natural light, exposed brick, wide-plank engineered hardwood floors, and discreet basement access tucked beneath the stairwell. A transom window at the front entry and a rear sliding glass door create an airy, seamless flow from living space to kitchen and outdoors. The kitchen features updated appliances, cabinetry, and a flexible nook ideal for dining, a home bar, or work area. Upstairs, you'll find two comfortable bedrooms with custom built-ins and redesigned closets, along with a completely remodeled bathroom. The basement provides ample storage and includes a full-sized washer and dryer and upgraded mechanicals, including a high-efficiency furnace and a newly installed central air conditioning system. Outdoors is where this property truly sets itself apart. The expansive fenced yard sits on a full-sized, double-wide lot, created by combining the former adjacent parcel (2545 Collins Street) into a single deeded property. This rare outdoor space offers endless possibilities: create a private garden oasis, add gated off-street parking, expand the existing home, or explore redevelopment opportunities. A horizontal wood fence provides privacy, and the secure parcel mailbox attached to the front of the house adds peace of mind for package deliveries. With all-new windows and doors, modern systems, practical renovations throughout, and unmatched flexibility thanks to the oversized lot, this is a truly turnkey property in a high-demand location. Whether you're looking for space to grow or an investor or developer seeking long-term upside, 2547 Collins Street is a rare find-one that won't last long.
