Bright, Welcoming Main Level
This home immediately surprises with its sense of space and light. A gracious foyer with generous coat storage sets the tone, leading into a sun-filled living room with refinished oak floors and a classic wood-burning fireplace. Large windows frame views of the landscaped backyard, while double doors open directly to the patio—creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living.
The adjacent dining area flows naturally from the living room, offering ample space for everyday meals and larger gatherings. The kitchen is bright, spacious, and designed for daily ease, featuring a charming breakfast nook framed by a bow window. High-end KitchenAid stainless-steel appliances, including a dual-fuel range and French-door refrigerator, are paired with a pantry, built-in display cabinetry, and generous workspace—making this a kitchen that truly supports both cooking and hosting.
Flexible Upper-Level Living
Upstairs, four comfortable bedrooms provide flexibility for sleeping, working, or creative pursuits. The primary suite includes both a walk-in closet and a cedar closet, along with a private en-suite bath. A second full bath serves the remaining bedrooms, while cedar closets in every bedroom offer exceptional storage—an increasingly rare and valuable feature.
A very large walk-up attic, accessed by wide stairs, adds even more versatility. Whether used for storage now or considered for future expansion, this space offers meaningful long-term potential.
Expanded Lower-Level Options
The lower level further extends the home’s livability with a large family room featuring built-ins and walk-out access to the garage. A bright fifth bedroom and a full, recently renovated bathroom make this level ideal for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living.
For buyers seeking additional room to grow, the home also includes a 700-square-foot unfinished basement with a window and exterior door—well suited for future finished living space, a gym, or studio.
Exterior and Setting
From the street, the home’s classic brick exterior and slate roof reflect quality construction and long-term care. Outdoors, a newer permeable paver driveway, expansive back and side patios, and mature landscaping create inviting spaces for entertaining, relaxing, and everyday enjoyment. A recently built large wooden shed provides practical additional storage.
Set on one of University Park’s most beautiful streets, this is a home that balances gracious living today with the flexibility to evolve over time.
Exceptional connection to nature and trees!
