Sunlight pours through newer windows, illuminating gleaming hardwood floors and creating a bright, gallery-like backdrop ready for your personal style. The refreshed full bath features a soaking tub and separate shower, offering a calming place to unwind. Central air and an efficient energy footprint provide year-round comfort with a mindful approach to living. The fully finished basement expands the home’s versatility with high ceilings, a second full bath, and flexible space ideal for a studio, home office, or guest suite. With full egress and a separate entry, it’s perfectly suited for work or hosting. Recent upgrades including furnace, hot water heater, 200-amp electrical, and whole-house generator all offer peace of mind so you can focus on living and creating. Outside, enjoy a landscaped yard, a remodeled screened-in back porch, and a private driveway leading to a detached garage with ample storage and a storage shed for added convenience. Ideally located near DeHart Park and Maplecrest Park, and moments from the lively Springfield Avenue corridor, this is a rare opportunity to plug into the creative pulse of Maplewood while enjoying space, style, and community. Note: Park on Franklin Avenue and come in the back door past the garage.
