This home exudes true character with huge rooms, 9' ceilings, and unique custom finishes throughout. Step inside to discover a massive living room, a large separate dining room, complemented by two generously sized bedrooms flanking a full bathroom. Abundant closets provide ample storage, while hardwood flooring lies beneath the carpet, waiting to be revealed. The curved window bays add a charming touch, enhancing the home's distinctive appeal. The large kitchen offers an eat-in space and features a huge pantry, perfect for any culinary needs.

The basement boasts high ceilings and includes a full bathroom, as well as a large dry bar that completes the space. This home combines the best of both worlds with a boiler system and central AC for year-round comfort.

Located in vibrant Garfield Ridge, this home has walkability to shopping, public transportation, restaurants and more.
