Description

Nestled on Swing Lane in the heart of Mockingbird Valley, this charming four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath Cape Cod presents a rare opportunity to own a home on one of the neighborhood’s most coveted streets. Perfectly positioned along the Mockingbird Valley’s outermost boundary, the setting is defined by timeless beauty, established elegance, and an unmistakable sense of prestige. Built in 1939, this lovingly maintained home has had only two owners in its history and has been thoughtfully renovated and expanded over the past 55 years by its current owner. The home enjoys a picturesque presence framed by a meticulously manicured front lawn, maintained by Dwyer Landscaping. The recently redone brick stairs and walkways showcase exceptional craftsmanship, featuring stunning inlaid designs and intricate mortar detailing that beautifully complement and reflect the artistry of the home’s brick exterior. Inside, a long and inviting foyer welcomes you and draws your eye toward the dining room, where beautiful windows overlook the serene rear yard and pool. To the right, the spacious living room features built-in bookshelves and a classic wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm and timeless gathering space. To the left, the private office features a convenient wet bar and offers tranquil views of the front yard and street, creating a peaceful and refined workspace. The showstopping family room—originally a sleeping porch and thoughtfully expanded by the current owner—offers a warm and inviting space designed for gathering. A striking barrel-vaulted ceiling adorned with rich wood paneling draws the eye upward, while a stunning stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the room. Tall windows flood the space with natural light, and a convenient rear door provides seamless access to the pool patio, making indoor-outdoor entertaining effortless. Down the left hallway, you’ll find access to the galley kitchen, formal half bath, stairwell to the second floor, and the spacious primary suite. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with a built-in breakfast table and a side door leading to a charming brick staircase that provides accesses to the detached two-car garage. The primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat, offering two generous dressing closets—one with a washer and dryer—along with a large bay window overlooking the front lawn. The en suite bath includes dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Upstairs are three well-sized bedrooms—two sharing a hall bath and one with a private en suite—plus additional attic storage space. The lower level includes a large storage area (formerly the original two-car garage), an additional unfinished storage/laundry space, and a recreational room complete with a brick fireplace. Out back, the beautifully maintained pool, garden and patio create a private oasis—perfect for warm summer days spent enjoying cool drinks, conversation, and a refreshing swim.
