500 E 66th Terrace

The charm of Brookside is timeless, but that doesn't mean your home has to feel stuck in the past. This home offers the appeal of an established Brookside neighborhood, without outdated wiring, plumbing, or an endless to-do list. This Armour Hills Gardens home has been thoughtfully reimagined from top to bottom, with updates that go far beyond what meets the eye. Not a stone left unturned. The main level features refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint throughout, a front entry drop zone, a wood-burning fireplace, dedicated laundry space, a half bathroom, and a versatile side room that could be used as an office, playroom, gym, library, or whatever your heart desires. The kitchen showcases two-tone kitchen cabinets, quartz countertops, and new stainless-steel appliances. There are three bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the second level. The primary suite has dual closets and a private ensuite with a walk-in shower, and the hallway bathroom is situated between the additional bedrooms. The basement features waterproofed stone foundation walls, offering useful storage space and added confidence in the home’s upkeep. The back door in the kitchen leads directly to a patio and fenced yard, very convenient for entertaining. An attached one-car garage with a brand-new door completes the package. The home also offers major improvements beyond cosmetics, providing the new owner with peace of mind. The roof, gutters, water heater, and main drain stack were all replaced this year. Electrical upgrades include new wiring throughout to eliminate the original knob-and-tube system, a new panel, and 200-amp service. PEX plumbing replaced the original galvanized piping, and the sewer line has been partially replaced. With extensive renovations, meaningful infrastructure upgrades, and the character of a beloved Brookside neighborhood, this home offers the charm buyers love with the updates they want. You won't need a handyman on speed dial for this one.
