A 1923 bungalow in the heart of Maxwell Park, this sunlit home invites you into a scene of vintage charm warmed by thoughtful updates. Light-filled rooms unfold around a spacious living room anchored by a wall of original 1920s bow windows and built-in shelving that frames a wood-burning fireplace, offering a place to gather through every season. The dining room opens with sliding glass doors to a small deck and retains a built-in hutch with practical drawers. The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a new range hood, refreshed cabinet hardware, and a modern faucet, and it opens directly to the deck for effortless summer grilling and al fresco meals. The primary bedroom also opens to the private, fully landscaped backyard where a Tiger-wood deck meets an expansive sun-splashed lawn—ideal for play, gardening, or quiet afternoon reading. A finished basement provides flexible bonus space, built-in washer and dryer, and abundant storage; an attached one-car garage adds convenience. Move-in ready and rich with historic character, this home pairs comfortable, spacious rooms with a cozy, inviting ambiance and ready access to Laurel District dining, nearby amenities, and just three blocks from Melrose Leadership Academy.
