Description

Tucked away in the Highlands, this home sits on a charming little street that feels like its own private neighborhood. The curb appeal is undeniable – the welcoming front porch and wrought-iron railings set the tone before you even step inside.
Inside, you’ll find a bright and inviting family room with exposed beams, updated lighting, and a cozy, welcoming feel. The spacious kitchen features a marble tile backsplash, granite countertops, hard-wired under-cabinet lighting, a Delta touch-activated faucet, and updated stainless appliances – perfect for cooking and entertaining.
Three comfortable bedrooms and two full baths include stylish updates like newer vanities, marble shower tile, and updated plumbing and fixtures. The main level includes a bedroom and full bath, while upstairs you’ll find two additional bedrooms and a second full bath with new tile. Attic storage is easily accessible from the second floor.
The basement adds even more living space, complete with a gym area and a finished space that could be used as a theater room. Major mechanicals have been recently updated, including a Navien tankless water heater (2024), Carrier furnace and condenser (2022), and waterproofing with a lifetime transferable warranty.
Out back, enjoy your own private retreat with a pergola that features custom blinds from Spindletop Draperies, a patio, and a newly added privacy fence. The shaded front yard adds charm and curb appeal thanks to mature trees with stunning fall foliage. The drive-through garage with alley access makes parking and storage a breeze.
Best of all, you’re just around the corner from the Highlands – with its shops, restaurants, and vibrant energy – yet tucked away enough to enjoy peace and quiet. With a newer roof (2022), HVAC, and smart home features like a Nest lock and thermostat, this home offers the perfect blend of charm, updates and peace of mind.
