If you're the type of person who wants to inherit the keys to a beloved 1940's home in the heart of Cochran Heights, adored by owners for the last 22 years with tasteful updates & meticulous maintenance, then we welcome you to come tour this beauty in person. The 2-story FRONT home has 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms across 1,968 SF, complete with Farrow & Ball paint, Shade Store window dressings, a light-drenched sunroom (with dog door!), charming oversized deck and pergola, all set against a backdrop of lush landscaping & mature trees. A large renovation project undertaken in 2023 reveals high-end, timeless selections that blend seamlessly with the home's old-world colonial charm. Either bedroom upstairs could be primary sleeping quarters - one at 14'x14' & the other at a whopping 14' x 25.5', which could be reconfigured to 2 bedrooms or make a great office, den, or hobby area. But it only gets better...follow the stone path to a wholly separate 2-story retreat at the rear of the property - 1,423 SF of additional space with highlights including a 20-foot sliding glass wall, custom shelving, 2 full bathrooms renovated in 2022, Herman Miller and Rejuvenation lighting fixtures, another doggy door, and much more. Perfect to work from home or multi-generational living situations (including private access and 1 car garage). Extra sprinkles include 2 full sets of washer & dryers, 2 refrigerators, a gas grill, and an active community with Friday porch parties, annual wine walk, and neighbors that genuinely care for one another. If you're not familiar with the Knox-Henderson area - we are literal steps from an abundant mix of restaurants, local & luxury shopping, and more on the way - truly a destination spot. Without exaggeration, this home is a neighborhood gem perfectly suited for move-in. For inspiration, selected photos have been digitally staged, followed by the blank canvas version to visualize your future home. We look forward to seeing you soon!
