Property Description

Welcome to this charming and well-maintained home, ideally situated on a quiet street in Melrose Park Gardens. Thoughtfully cared for and filled with natural light, this residence offers a compelling blend of comfort, functionality, and everyday convenience.

A welcoming foyer opens to a spacious living room, where beautiful hardwood floors flow seamlessly into the dining area and continue throughout the second level. The kitchen features updated appliances and ample counter space, offering a practical layout for daily living. Just off the dining room, elegant French doors lead to an enclosed deck, perfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining, morning coffee, or relaxing evenings.

Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms. The primary suite offers two closets and a private en suite bathroom. The second bedroom includes a walk-in closet, providing excellent storage, while the third bedroom offers flexibility for guests, a home office, or additional living space.

The lower level adds valuable versatility with a finished walk-out basement, ideal for entertaining, extended living, or a private retreat. This level also includes a convenient powder room and laundry area.

Additional highlights include central air conditioning, off-street parking with a private driveway, and a rear garage, features that are increasingly sought after and not always easy to find in this area.

Conveniently located near public transportation, shopping, schools, and local amenities, this home offers both tranquility and accessibility. Homes with this combination of space, functionality, and parking are rarely available, don't miss the opportunity to make it yours.
