Impeccably maintained by the owners for more than 40 years, this Arts and Crafts foursquare combines wonderful original character, intentional and thoughtful updates, and an oversized lot, in a coveted Cooper location near the River. The front yard is punctuated by a hedge row that leads to front and side yards filled with maintenance-free vinca, perennials and shrubs, plus a small sitting area to enjoy sunsets. Thanks to the extra wide lot, the main floor enjoys natural light throughout the day, adding warmth to the natural oak and maple hardwoods of the living and dining rooms. The entryway has a coat closet (with a window!) for everyday use. The remodeled kitchen features high-end stainless steel appliances, granite counters and convenient pantry storage. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to cleverly maximize spaces and utility while celebrating original detail. The second floor has four bedrooms and a full bath with a linen closet in the hallway. The lower level has a great finished family room space - and you'll feel the difference of the quality finishes (plus a feeling of spaciousness due to the extra ceiling height of the basement.) Built-in media area and storage closets hide household utilities; wall of storage shelving, high-end laundry area with drying rack, and chic 3/4 bath round out the lower level. The backyard oasis has a bluestone patio and special screened-in porch off the two-car garage, adding an 'outdoor living room.' Amazing gardens, with many easy perennials to delight you this summer. TISH Home Energy Score of 100; see supplements for many mechanical and maintenance enhancements. Sophisticated, yet comfortable - 3133 44th Avenue South welcomes the next stewards of this remarkable home.
