Recently reduced by $20,000, this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence offers 1,636 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space on a desirable corner lot, just a short stroll from the Shops of Avondale. And for a limited time, buyers can enjoy an additional opportunity to make homeownership more attainable with a seller-offered 2-1 mortgage interest rate buy-down with an acceptable offer by October 31st. Step inside and discover a light-filled, open-concept interior created during a comprehensive 2021 renovation. The inviting living room features abundant natural light and a cozy electric fireplace, setting the scene for intimate evenings and effortless relaxation. A dedicated dining area elevates entertaining with a custom built-in bar and wine cooler, while the beautifully renovated kitchen pairs stylish countertops with stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop, pantry storage, and direct access to the backyard deck. Just beyond the kitchen, a thoughtfully appointed laundry area offers custom built-in cabinetry and a Samsung washer and dryer. Two generously sized guest bedrooms share a well-appointed bathroom, while the expanded primary suite provides a private retreat with ample closet space, custom organizers, and a beautifully finished ensuite featuring double vanities, a soaking tub, and a zero-entry walk-in shower. Beyond the interiors, a fully fenced backyard and spacious deck invite leisurely afternoons, evening gatherings, and memorable moments under the stars. A storage shed and oversized driveway off Greenwood Avenue add practical convenience to this charming corner-lot property.

A MOST TEMPTING OFFER, HERE FOR A LIMITED TIME The price has been reduced by $20,000, and an additional seller-offered 2-1 mortgage interest rate buy-down is available with an acceptable offer by October 31st. This financing incentive can temporarily reduce the effective mortgage interest rate during the first two years of the loan, potentially lowering monthly principal and interest payments during that period before the loan returns to its original note rate.
