Property Description

Right in the heart of West Park, where tree-lined streets and timeless architecture still matter, this colonial delivers the character you want and the updates you hope someone else already paid for. Step inside and the first thing you’ll notice is the flow—because in 2023 the wall between the kitchen and dining room came down, opening the space into a bright, modern layout that still respects the home’s original charm. The kitchen renovation is crisp and stylish, and yes, the original hardwood floors run throughout the rest of the house, tying everything together with that unmistakable West Park warmth. A newly added sliding patio door off the dining room brings in even more light and leads straight to the backyard—perfect for entertaining, gardening, or just unwinding. And speaking of practical upgrades, you’ll love the oversized mudroom off the back of the kitchen: whether storage or an extension of the kitchen it is exactly the kind of space you don’t realize you need until you have it. No mechanical worries here. In 2023, all HVAC equipment was replaced and the electrical service and panel were upgraded. It’s the stuff buyers never brag about but always appreciate. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, including one with its own outdoor balcony—your personal perch overlooking the backyard. The full bath is classic tile, clean and timeless. The basement is half-finished with another full bath, giving you bonus living space plus plenty of storage, including a generous fruit cellar tucked under the mudroom. Old homes rarely give you this much flexibility. Outside, the charm keeps rolling with a large front porch perfect for West Park people-watching, in back there are raised garden beds, multiple patio areas, a fully fenced yard, and a two-car garage. This is the sweet spot—historic character, thoughtful updates, and a neighborhood that just feels like home. In West Park, this one stands out in all the right ways.
