About this home
Located in the vibrant and historic Summit-University neighborhood just six blocks from Mississippi Market and Claddagh Café, and situated between Lexington Parkway and Cathedral Hill, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath home blends timeless charm with extensive modern updates. The welcoming open-air front porch leads into a thoughtfully designed interior featuring original natural woodwork, hardwood floors throughout, and a classic double parlor layout. The formal dining room showcases a built-in buffet with leaded glass doors, while the updated kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, original hardwood floors, and a butler’s pantry with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. A rear porch and mudroom provide added everyday functionality.
Upstairs, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms with walk-in closets, attic access via stairs in the primary closet for storage or potential expansion, and a charming second-level porch. The full bath has been stylishly updated with walnut LVP flooring and a coordinating walnut vanity. Two large linen closets complete the second-floor layout. The lower level features a third bedroom with egress, ideal for guests or a home office, in addition to a separate storage room and motion-sensor lighting throughout the basement.
The backyard is a true retreat, boasting composite decking, brick and paver patios, retaining walls, a cedar-toned privacy fence, a pergola, and extensive raised garden beds. A custom 4x8 chicken coop with a ChickenGuard waterproof automatic self-locking door adds a unique, functional touch. The oversized two-car garage, built in Fall 2018, includes keyless entry and a WiFi-enabled myQ smart opener for ultimate convenience.
Smart home upgrades include a hardwired Google Nest Protect smoke and carbon monoxide detector on each level, an Ecobee smart thermostat with voice control, Ring video doorbell, Lutron Caseta smart lighting, a Simply Safe security system, and custom cellular shades throughout the home—some with top-down functionality. Triple-pane windows in the kitchen and dining room (installed in 2018) enhance both comfort and energy efficiency. Major mechanical updates include a high-efficiency 2-stage Lennox furnace in 2018and a power-vented hot water heater in 2019.
