Tucked away at the end of non-through street and surrounded by mature trees, this beautifully renovated 1950s brick home offers something increasingly rare, authentic character, timeless craftsmanship, and a setting filled with privacy and charm. Far from a cookie-cutter property, this sturdy brick residence was built to last and has been thoughtfully reimagined with a fresh contemporary farmhouse aesthetic while preserving its enduring appeal.
A welcoming front porch leads to a stunning decorative wood entry door, setting the tone for the stylish interiors beyond. Inside, you'll find crisp white walls, elegant crown molding, farmhouse-inspired lighting, and a soothing neutral color palette that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. Black fixtures and hardware throughout add a sophisticated modern contrast, while luxury vinyl plank flooring flows seamlessly through most of the main level. To the left of the foyer, the spacious primary suite serves as a private retreat, featuring crown molding, recessed lighting, and a sliding barn door leading to a beautifully appointed en suite bath. The bath includes dual vanities, a walk-in shower with a rain showerhead, and a private water closet.
To the right, a generously sized family room welcomes gatherings with crown molding and recessed lighting, opening effortlessly into the heart of the home. The beautifully updated kitchen features quartz countertops, a breakfast-bar island, stainless steel appliances, and a convection self-cleaning oven. Just beyond, the formal living room offers a striking black-and-white painted brick wood-burning fireplace, creating the perfect focal point for cozy evenings and holiday celebrations. The formal dining room is equally inviting, highlighted by a dramatic black chandelier, crown molding, and chair rail detailing that add elegance and character to every gathering.
Down the hallway, you'll find two comfortable guest bedrooms with plush carpeting, a full hall bath with a tub/shower combination, a linen closet, and a second primary suite. This additional suite features plush carpeting and a private en suite bath complete with a tiled shower, classic black fixtures, and a rain showerhead, making it ideal for guests or multi-generational living.
The full unfinished basement provides exceptional storage and future possibilities. It houses the laundry area, an oversized water heater installed in 2022, Bilco doors, and walk-up access to the backyard. A Generac whole-house generator and water treatment systemoffers additional peace of mind year-round.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The oversized backyard provides ample room for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or recreation and includes a paver patio, storage shed, and a dramatic black wrought-iron gate that creates a memorable entrance at the end of the long private driveway. An attached two-car garage with automatic openers offers convenient access from both the driveway and rear patio.
