About this home

Welcome to this beautifully renovated bungalow in the heart of Emerson Heights, where classic character meets modern convenience and worry-free living. In today's market, finding a home that doesn't come with a long list of expensive projects is a major advantage, and this one delivers! With a NEW ROOF, NEW FURNACE, NEW MINI-SPLIT SYSTEM, NEW FLOORING, UPDATED FIXTURES, NEW APPLIANCES, and fresh paint and trim throughout, many of the costly improvements buyers worry about have already been completed. That means less time budgeting for renovations and more time enjoying your home from day one! Step inside to a bright, welcoming living space that flows into a beautifully updated kitchen featuring stone countertops, shaker-style cabinetry, a spacious center island with bar seating, and plenty of room to gather with family and friends. The main level offers comfortable living spaces, while the versatile upstairs loft provides flexibility for a third bedroom, home office, creative space, or private retreat. Outside, the spacious deck overlooking the backyard creates the perfect setting for morning coffee, weekend cookouts, or relaxing after a long day. Here's what makes this home special: You're not just buying a beautifully updated house. You're buying the confidence that comes with having many of the major improvements already behind you. Instead of spending your weekends tackling projects, you can focus on making memories. Located in the established Emerson Heights neighborhood, this move-in-ready bungalow offers an exceptional combination of character, thoughtful improvements, and everyday comfort. Even better, this home may qualify for multiple homebuyer grants and down payment assistance programs, potentially making homeownership more affordable than you think! Eligibility and availability are subject to program requirements. Move in. Settle in. Enjoy the home. The heavy lifting has already been done!
