About this home

CENTURY 21 Fine Homes & Estates
Updated 1950s Heights bungalow with a rare combination of move-in-ready finishes, a proven short-term rental income history, and zoning to A-rated schools. Open concept living, dining, and kitchen filled with natural light flow seamlessly to a fully fenced backyard with covered patio and pergola, an outdoor footprint rarely found in the Heights. The thoughtfully renovated primary suite features a Spanish Krion freestanding soaking tub, Porcelanosa fixtures, separate shower, and an expanded walk-in closet. Behind the walls is where this home really shines: a 24kw Generac whole-home generator with automatic transfer switch, updated HVAC, PEX plumbing, added insulation, water heater, foundation leveling, Hardy Plank siding, and smart home upgrades including Nest cameras, doorbell, and fire alarm system, all completed since 2021. Detached 2-car garage with private driveway. Refrigerator, washer, and dryer convey. Short-term rental history available upon request!
