Description
Located in the sought-after neighborhood of Stuart Heights this mid-century rancher over full basement is a gem! Sitting on a double-lot measuring 1.6+/- acres, privacy and wooded views are prevalent here! The main driveway leads to a front-entry two car garage while a second driveway leads to the basement level entry. Most notable is the blonde brick exterior, a popular choice in the late 1950’s, and the unique red door with vintage Sunburst doorknob. This 1958 home originally had 3 Bedrooms and 2 Full Baths on the Main Level, but the homeowner reconfigured the home utilizing the third bedroom as a Den/Office and enlarging the Primary Suite Bath to include a new double-sink vanity and ”wet room” with zero-entry, tiled shower. The Guest Bath was also updated with new tile floor/surround, sink, and countertop. The living and dining area is a single open, light-filled room with a retro brick planter separating the dining area from the entry. The homeowner installed a modern spiral staircase at the entry to access the basement level. Still intact are the original hardwood floors throughout the living, dining, and bedrooms. The Kitchen boasts the original Youngstown steel cabinetry, popular in mid-century homes well into the 1960s. Countertops have been upgraded to granite, tile backsplash added, flooring replaced, and new stove installed. The main level garage is over-sized (21’x28’8”) and houses the laundry appliances. A side entry door leads to a spacious terrace defined by a beautiful stone wall – perfect for gardening or outdoor entertaining. Off the basement level there are two wooden decks – one at a pedestrian door underneath the Den and a second at the sliding glass door adjacent to the second driveway making this home ideal for separate living quarters. The homeowner purchased the home in 2012 and immediately completed a number of improvements including new windows, gutters, and electrical updates. In 2017 additional renovations included partial finishing of the basement creating an office and full bath (171 square feet as measured by appraiser) followed by Kitchen and Bath renovations on the main level. To make the basement usable and “dry” the homeowner contracted the encapsulation of the unfinished area and had a drainage system installed (checked annually). HVAC was replaced in 2017 and electric water heater in 2018. Stuart Heights is also loved for its Pool and Tennis Club open from Memorial Day to Labor Day for members.
