About This Home
The Jewel of Park Avenue has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated and is now available! This stunning two-family home—long admired for its charm—welcomes you with an inviting front porch and sits on a rare double lot offering ample parking, gardens, and outdoor living space, all supported by an easy-to-use irrigation system for the front lawn and the low-maintenance rear turf lawn which is ideal for kids & pets to play! Inside the front owner’s unit, you’ll find exceptional original woodwork, gleaming hardwood floors, and new carpet throughout. Oversized windows in the front living room provide beautiful views of Park Avenue. The spacious dining room is ideal for entertaining, while the updated eat-in kitchen features granite countertops, high-end appliances, abundant storage, and gorgeous natural stone flooring! A recently renovated half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, the second floor offers three bedrooms, including two with ensuite baths. One of the ensuite baths has been fully remodeled with today's gorgeous finishes! Plus, an additional full bath in the hallway serves the primary bedroom and has recently had a makeover too! The third floor provides flexible space—perfect for a fourth bedroom, home office, or studio—along with generous storage. The rear unit is a one-bedroom, one-bath apartment, currently tenant-occupied through 12/31 at $1,250/month, offering income potential or future expansion into the main home. Additional highlights include a detached two-car garage and beautifully landscaped grounds with perennial gardens, patio, and gazebo. Ideally located across from a park and within walking distance to shops, cafés, and restaurants. This one is a Gem!
