536 Drexel Avenue

This stone-front cape stands on a quiet, sun-dappled street that culminates with a 45-acre nature center, where hiking trails wind through the forests of Drexel Woods. This tranquil spot is mere seconds from Notre Dame High School and public transportation stopping along Route 206. Mature red maples and a stone planter enhance the homes front yard, while around back, the deep lot is peaceful and pretty with a flowering dogwood visible from the kitchen window. All the big-ticket improvements that keep a home running smoothly have been addressed - a new roof, modernized systems and replaced Andersen windows and doors - allowing new owners to focus on updates that show off their personal style. Handsome hardwood floors, a broad picture window and a stone fireplace set the tone in the living room. Off the dining area, a sunroom is wrapped in windows. A hall bath displaying clean Scandinavian style and subway tiled walls serves two corner bedrooms. Currently, the upper level acts as an expansive primary suite with a sunny bedroom, a cheerful bath clad in pristine vintage tile, a sitting room and a studio tucked into the corner, ideal for creative pursuits. With its own entrance and electrical panel, separate upstairs living quarters are a possibility, as is creation of a fourth bedroom with the simple addition of a door. Storage needs are covered in the huge basement with handy Bilco doors, while the wide driveway offers plenty of off-street parking. A gem in the making on a treasured street!
