Days On Market

Welcome to 1527 Elmwood Ave, a thoughtfully updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath Craftsman-style home offering versatile living space. A top-to-bottom renovation completed nine years ago included plumbing, electrical, windows, Hardie board siding, roof, and a high-efficiency furnace and AC (2019). The inviting first floor features a family room with custom bench seating that flows into an updated kitchen with GE Profile appliances, granite countertops, and 42-inch maple cabinetry with crown molding. A first-floor bedroom with a custom Murphy bed offers flexibility as a home office or guest room. Upstairs, the primary bedroom connects to a tandem dressing room, while two additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations, including one with built-in drawers and shelving. The finished lower level with all new flooring in 2024 expands the living space with room for recreation, entertaining, and additional storage. A sump pump and drain tile installed by US Waterproofing in 2023 with lifetime warranty provides the ultimate peace of mind. Outside, enjoy a sunny deck with a power-retractable awning overlooking a private yard featuring perennial plantings and raised vegetable gardens-an inviting setting for relaxing, dining, and outdoor enjoyment. A two-car garage completes this exceptional offering. Schedule your private showing today.
