2201 Alston Avenue

2201 Alston Ave seamlessly blends historic charm with modern living. Set on a corner lot with great curb appeal, this Fairmount cottage greets you with a shaded front yard and a wrap-around porch — it's immediately apparent this one is something special. Inside, the living room opens to the dining room, anchored by a fireplace flanked with built-in cabinets. The gorgeous kitchen — with abundant custom cabinetry — sits just beyond, creating an easy flow from living to dining to kitchen. The front bedroom features handsome built-ins and sliding doors, while the middle bedroom is a real treat: built-in shelves plus a custom Murphy bed, both handcrafted by the owner. The primary suite is spacious, with a private bath and large walk-in closet. A second bathroom, conveniently located in the center hall, sits near the utility closet. Outside, gated driveway access adds a welcome layer of privacy and security, leading to a one-car garage with workshop space — where the owner built the home's custom shelving and Murphy bed. A private side yard rounds out this special property, offering even more room to relax or entertain.
