Property Description
Discover the home you've been dreaming of! Nestled in the highly sought-after Bellewood neighborhood, this beautifully maintained Cape Cod sits on nearly half an acre in the heart of St. Matthews, perfectly positioned near Holy Trinity Catholic Church and School, Trinity High School, and a variety of restaurants, shops, and major roadways.
Step inside and be greeted by stunning hardwood floors, updated triple-pane windows, and the convenience of a whole-house natural gas generator. The home's charm is matched with practicality, featuring stainless steel appliances, dual HVAC systems, and timeless design touches throughout.
The welcoming entryway flows into a bright, spacious living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter, elegant marble surround, and classic mantle. Across the hall, the formal dining room offers ample space for hosting, leading to a sun-soaked sunroom with a private entrance - ideal for quiet mornings or lively gatherings.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with hardwood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a wine chiller, and a large walk-in pantry. Nearby, a convenient first-floor laundry area with plenty of storage space leads directly to the oversized two-and-a-half-car garage and adjoining workshop, along with access to the expansive backyard deck - perfect for outdoor entertaining.
The main floor continues with spacious bedrooms, a guest-ready half bath, a full bath, and a serene primary suite. The owner's suite boasts a custom walk-in closet with beautiful shelving and an updated ensuite bath with radiant flooring and towel bar for ultimate comfort and relaxation.
Upstairs, you'll find a large family room, two additional generous bedrooms, and a full bath. A second-story balcony overlooks the backyard and connects to the lower deck via a staircase, offering even more outdoor living options.
The finished basement is an entertainer's dream, complete with a roomy rec area, space for a second laundry room, and abundant storage, including a sizable crawl space for seasonal items.
Designed for low-maintenance living, this home features perennial landscaping, no exterior painting needs, gutter covers for easy upkeep, vinyl windows, and powder-coated deck pickets for durability. Plus, fall leaf pickup is provided by the city of Bellewood, simplifying yard care even further.
Meticulously cared for and move-in ready, this Bellewood beauty is waiting for you to make it your own!
