616 NW 42nd Terrace

Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought-after Claymont neighborhood, this 1.5-story home offers rare privacy, space, and a wooded backdrop that feels like acreage in the middle of the city. With no visible neighbors on either side, the setting is exceptionally private yet close to everything. Step into a large, open living room with vaulted ceilings, wood beam accents, and a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. Walls of glass and sliding doors on both sides of the home bring in natural light and allow for cross-breezes, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor feel. The space flows into a formal dining area designed for easy entertaining. The chef’s kitchen features a gas cooktop, double ovens, granite countertops, and a functional layout, highlighted by a custom brick accent wall. Just off the kitchen are a half bath and laundry room for convenience. Tall ceilings, an open catwalk, and expansive sightlines make the home feel significantly larger than it appears, adding volume and architectural interest throughout. The main-level primary suite is privately situated as a true retreat. Upstairs, two bedrooms are separated by an open catwalk overlooking the living room, with a full bath completing the level. The lower level expands the home with a fourth bedroom, large rec space with fireplace and wet bar, plus flexible space for an office, gym, or hobby room. Outdoor living is a standout with maintenance-free artificial turf, playset, multiple decks, wraparound flagstone patio, and terraced entertaining areas—designed for year-round use and zero mud. Lower level also offers oversized storage/workroom with exterior access. This highly desirable neighborhood setting delivers privacy, scale, and lifestyle—wooded, secluded, and still close to everything.
