The unfinished basement with outside egress/stairs to the backyard has great space and potential and includes a new washer and dryer and rough-in for a future bathroom. The outdoor living spaces are simply enchanting, featuring an inviting front porch with recessed lighting, a screened porch with a ceiling fan, and a spacious deck with an entertainment bar/sink with custom granite, spanning the rear of the home. The professionally landscaped yard is a gardener's paradise, boasting a delightful array of plantings, perennials, and a tranquil pond. The meticulously crafted hardscaping, stone walkway, and stone walls add to the home's allure, while the stone patio provides the perfect setting for a firepit, ideal for gathering with family and friends . Exceptional walkability! You can easily walk to the MARC train, weekly Farmer's Market, Antique Row, shops, restaurants, parks, and more, making this home an ideal retreat in a sought-after, convenient location.
