About this home
Welcome Home to 407 Cornell Avenue, where a solid brick exterior and manicured lawn establish exceptional curb appeal. Concrete walkways guide you past beautiful garden beds to an enchanting, slate-tiled three-season sunroom. Wrapped in windows and anchored by a cozy wood-burning stove, this sun-drenched entryway serves as a peaceful retreat for morning coffee. Passing through the solid-wood front door, you enter a welcoming foyer showcasing beautifully preserved original oak hardwood flooring that stretches seamlessly across the main level.
The entry leads directly into a grand formal living room illuminated by elegant recessed lighting and anchored by a decorative stone fireplace, perfect for gathering and creating memories. An open-concept archway flows effortlessly into a formal dining room bathed in natural light. This space transitions into the primary kitchen, the beautifully open and true heart of the home. Designed for effortless connection, this culinary center offers maximum storage efficiency with ceiling-height oak cabinetry, spacious countertops, and a premium Samsung slide-in range. Beyond the kitchen sits the true architectural showpiece: a spectacular, expansive Great Room. Crowned with intricate dentil molding, this magnificent space boasts a grand crystal chandelier, a gas fireplace with a marble surround, and stately arched palladian windows framing lush backyard greenery.
The original hardwood staircase ascends to a wide landing, connecting three quiet bedrooms and a pristine central bathroom. The master suite serves as a peaceful sanctuary, featuring a contemporary ceiling fan and the rare luxury of dual walk-in closets. Servicing this level is a charming hall bathroom impeccably preserved with classic mosaic floor tile and a porcelain pedestal sink. The lower level expands the home's utility with a fully finished walk-out basement operating beautifully as an independent auxiliary suite. Set on durable ceramic tile, it features a spacious recreation hall with a large built-in entertainment center, a private second full bathroom, and a complete secondary kitchen with its own gas stove and dishwasher—ideal for a separate play space or long-term guests. Nearby, the laundry station features high-end black appliances and an oversized utility sink. Best of all, a fully owned roof-mounted solar panel system conveys clear of debt, promising immediate utility savings from day one.
The lower hall opens into an over-depth integrated two-car garage uniquely sized to comfortably park a full-size truck or SUV with room for workspace shelving. Stepping out through the garage or sliding glass doors upstairs, you discover a magnificent two-story wrap-around deck offering a commanding platform for open-air dining. The deck steps down into an expansive, deep green lawn that extends into a private tree canopy, offering a secure sanctuary for outdoor activities. Tucked into this backyard retreat is a stone-ringed fire pit area and a large detached storage shed. Minutes from the city and local shopping, there are several other hidden gems throughout this house that simply must be experienced in person. Schedule your private tour today!...
