Serenity in the city! Solid, brick 1940's Cape Cod available in the charming neighborhood of Riverdale. Over 2,000 sq ft of preserved living space above and below grade. The first level offers a spacious living room with wood burning fire place, private dining room (that could be a fourth bedroom) and kitchen leading to a tranquil backyard. Conveniently, the first level also offers a full bathroom and large bedroom. A wide, solid wood staircase leads to the traditional two bedroom, one bathroom Cape Cod layout upstairs. Original hardwood floors sweep throughout, and much of the original charm has been maintained by way of moldings, tile, light fixtures and built-ins. The large finished basement can be used as an entertainment room, bedroom or extra storage. A separate laundry room, half bathroom, and utility closet with built-ins also occupy the lower level. The property has an attached one-car garage that can be accessed from the basement or backyard. From there, be wowed by a sweeping sea of green. A lush garden provides squash, corn, tomatoes, pumpkins, carrots, peppers, asparagus, sunflowers and more. Located on a dead end road, but conveniently near public transit. New roof in August 2019 and new HVAC installed in May 2020. Like the old saying goes, they don't make 'em like they used to! With bones like these, the opportunities are endless.
