Description

Rare opportunity in Garfield Ridge! Fully renovated brick home featuring modern finishes and an oversized 3-car garage with full attic storage. An extremely rare find in the neighborhood. This is not a flip! Seller invested in quality upgrades with plans to stay, but circumstances changed. The main level showcases hardwood floors, a bright living room with a bay window, and a beautifully updated kitchen with white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, stainless steel high quality appliances, induction cooking, tile backsplash, and windows with internal blinds for a sleek, modern touch. The finished basement adds valuable living space with recessed lighting and a full bathroom, offering flexible areas for recreation, guests, or a home office. Major upgrades include 200-amp electrical service, lead water service replaced with copper, and a dual-fuel HVAC system with heat pump and gas backup, and spray foam insulation for improved efficiency and comfort. A Lorex security system is also included. Outside, the spacious backyard features the oversized 3-car garage with an 8-foot overhead door and full attic storage, plus potential to add a driveway for additional parking. Move-in ready with quality renovations, modern mechanicals, and exceptional garage space rarely found in Garfield Ridge.
