Description

Beautifully updated Craftsman in the heart of Highland Park! Located on one of the neighborhood's most desirable blocks, this thoughtfully remodeled 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends historic character with modern comfort. Situated on a corner lot, the property features both a fenced front and backyard—perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or gardening. Enter through the front gate and onto the inviting covered porch. A new solid wood Dutch door opens into the foyer and light-filled living room, showcasing refinished hardwood floors, built-in cabinetry, and updated lighting throughout. The current owners expanded the home by approximately 600 square feet, creating a spacious primary suite at the rear of the house with a private bathroom, walk-in closet, and French doors that open to a new back deck and fenced backyard. A separate AC unit services the primary suite for added comfort. The kitchen was fully renovated and features butcher block countertops, freshly painted cabinetry, open shelving, stainless steel appliances, and newly added gas service. Reconfigured walls allow for a dedicated dining area just off the kitchen. A large laundry room offers ample storage, while two additional generously sized bedrooms share a full hall bathroom. Outdoor features include raised garden beds, new rear decks, and a private parking pad with gated access to the backyard. Additional highlights and updates include: new roof (2025), new dishwasher (2025), new hot water heater, refinished hardwood floors, interior paint, new carpet, hallway bench seating, can lighting in living areas and kitchen, all new exterior doors, and approximately 400 sq ft of unfinished attic space.
