[ SOLD for $439,900 on 12/01/2016 ] Don’t pass up this “Wood Streets” Normandy Tudor gem that has been impeccably maintained by the same family for almost 40 years. Exquisite is the first adjective that comes to mind, and we’re wondering why this 3 bedroom/2 bathroom home hasn’t been featured in Architectural Digest!
Built in 1937 with approximately 1600 sq ft, this home still maintains the original (and gorgeous) hardwood floors in most of the rooms, and a remodeled kitchen with quartz counters, subway tile, updated cabinetry, newer laminate floor, dishwasher, restored vintage appliances (1940s stove and 1950s refrigerator), and one of the cutest and brightest breakfast nooks ever!
Master bedroom suite boasts a large walk-in closet and a private remodeled bathroom with dual wash basins and a skylight. Second bathroom has also been remodeled, with skylight and dual sinks as well. The other two bedrooms are very nice, one with hardwood floors, and one boasting retro carpeting and double pane windows.
From the curb appeal to the upgrades such as central air/heat, indoor laundry, some double pane windows and 40-yr roof, you’ll also be impressed with a backyard that’s suited for entertaining, complete with built-in BBQ, original outdoor fireplace, fountain, and tree fort. Alley access, narrow RV parking, and a 2-car detached garage.
This is what the historic “Wood Streets” neighborhood is all about: charm, charm, charm!!!
