960 French Ave

Welcome to 960 French Avenue! This one-owner home is a charming storybook-style brick with timeless curb appeal. Steep gabled rooflines and an arched, stone-accented entry give it that classic Tudor-inspired character, while mature landscaping frames the home beautifully. Set on a spacious lot just under half an acre, this home offers four bedrooms, one and a half baths, and 1,709 square feet above grade, plus an additional 1,045 square feet in the basement. From the moment you arrive, it's clear this home has been well loved and thoughtfully cared for over the years. The arched wood front door sets the tone as you head inside, where an inviting entry opens into a spacious living room centered around a beautiful stone fireplace. Two French doors lead into a light-filled sunroom. A space for plants to thrive, or an easy bonus living area you'll enjoy across multiple seasons. Just off the living room, you'll find a first-floor bedroom with two closets for ample storage, along with a conveniently located half bath in the hall. The kitchen maintains its original charm while offering the functionality you need, complete with an oversized walk-in pantry. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms each offer generous closet space, with one featuring an extra adjoining room that could easily become a walk-in closet, office, or flex space to fit your needs. These bedrooms share a full bath with pristine original black-and-white tile and a charming arched tub nook that adds to the home's character. The basement offers even more flexibility with a large recreational area, laundry space with a sink, a dedicated workspace, and multiple storage closets. The HVAC was replaced in 2022 and has been well maintained since. Outside is where this property truly shines, with mature trees, seasonal blooms, and a yard that feels both private and expansive. A two-car garage includes a bonus workspace with double doors that open to the yard, along with a covered run perfect for lawn equipment and an additional shed for storage. There's plenty of room here to garden, entertain, or simply enjoy the outdoors. All of this is ideally located next to George Rogers Park, offering easy access to walking trails, tennis and pickleball courts, soccer fields, and more. It's a setting that's hard to beat and a home full of opportunity to make your own.
