197 Antwerp Avenue

Back on the market—through no fault of the seller. The previous buyer had a change of heart and we understand that a well-maintained vintage home (nearly 90 years young!) isn't everyone's comfort zone. The good news: this classic Craftsman underwent an extensive renovation in 2021 while still preserving the timeless character and craftsmanship you simply can't recreate today. If you love vintage charm with modern improvements already in place, this one deserves a look. This beautifully updated home features 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths just steps from Downtown shops, dining and community events. Character blends seamlessly with modern comfort, offering a flexible layout that includes a spacious rear room used as a primary bedroom with fireplace, beams and a full closet but could easily be a family room or home office. As you move through the home you'll find gleaming restored hardwood floors, exposed brick accents, a cozy reading nook and two fireplaces anchoring the main level, while the basement has been professionally waterproofed (lifetime warranty) and includes an updated full bathroom ideal for guests or in-law accommodations. The home showcases numerous 2021 renovations, including new flooring in the primary bedroom and both bathrooms, new vanities, faucets and lighting in the baths, updated lighting throughout the home and new stainless steel appliances with a range hood. Additional highlights from the 2021 renovation include solid wood cabinets with quartz countertops, restored original shiplap, a new roof, new central air and ductwork and custom touches such as exposed ceiling beams. Outdoor amenities include a stone fire pit, a covered back patio, a level backyard and a small one-car garage sits at the end of a shared driveway; the driveway is owned by this property but is shared by recorded easement for the neighboring home's garage access. Major updates include HVAC (2021), furnace (2021), appliances (2021), washer and dryer (2020), water heater (2017), roof inspection in 2021 and a waterproofed basement completed in 2022 with a lifetime warranty. A rare turnkey Craftsman with extensive updates and outstanding walkability—don't miss this exceptional opportunity.
