929 S Saint Asaph St

It’s hard to beat the curb appeal of this home with stone-front, slate roof, new copper gutters, tiered beds, flagstone patio, and covered porch. It stands out even among the variety of charming 1940’s homes of Southeast Old Town’s Yates Gardens. Add to that: limited traffic that comes from a location near the end of a dead-end block, and private parking for one vehicle right in front. But curb appeal is just the beginning. Inside, the living room features a faux fireplace with mantle, large front window, walls with a unique, subtle textured surface, and lovely (original) hardwoods. The main level of this home is open and updated in the very best ways. The hardwoods continue into dining area and blend seamlessly with the (newer) hardwoods beyond in the family room. The kitchen is sleek and understated, with modern function and flair in earth tones that stylishly complement this classic home. It’s outfitted with custom cabinets, glass shelves, quartz-topped peninsula and high-end stainless appliances (Viking range; Liebherr refrigerator; Meile dishwasher). The family room addition is spacious with a discreet main-level powder room – hard to find in this community. Newer, over-size sliders and skylights make the space bright and cheery with the gas fireplace and surrounding built-ins serving as a focal point. The fenced back patio, a few steps down, is just what’s needed for grilling or a casual dinner, with access to the public alley in back. ***** The upper level features two spacious bedrooms and a tastefully updated, shared bathroom with tub shower. Need extra storage? A pull-down staircase provides access to the floored attic. ***** A rec room on the lower level opens to a nicely appointed laundry room with a built-in workbench. Beyond, an unfinished storage room to stash things away, and thoughtfully designed 2nd full bath. Please ask for the full list of updates!
