Imagine sitting on the porch of this stately Cedar Park twin, under the outdoor fan, chatting with neighbors watching the world go by, taking a look at the garden to see if anything needs watering. Step inside the vestibule, and realize the wonderful blend of early 20th century charm and character, which has been upgraded and restored by the owners who lived at the property caring for it for many years. This is not a flipped house. In the spacious living room, natural light bathes the vintage grey extra wide hardwood floor planks. Notice the ornate leaded glass crowning, a signature of the original character of these sturdy homes. One of the great features of this home is that it is not open concept. Adjacent to the living area is a flex room, which can be conceptualized as either a private office when working from home or a bedroom on the first floor. The Eat-in kitchen offers a place to gather and break bread, or make bread. There is ample countertop space made of natural granite. All appliances are stainless steel, modern, and well appointed. For the chef, this home features gas cooking, and abundant cabinetry, as well as a built in pantry. The first floor of the home concludes with a neatly tucked powder room and laundry center, a prelude to a fantastic rear area. Outside, an urban oasis awaits with a large deck and tremendous hardscaped yard area. A gorgeous Japanese maple provides shade and beauty. Upstairs find a total of three large bedrooms and two full baths, one of which is an en suite. The ensuite bedroom has a natural stone feature wall with an orignal style metal fireplace surround. The bay window in this room adds a pleasing sense of additional dimension and light. A walk in closet with a custom built in closet system allows for better organization, and precedes the ensuite bath. The ensuite inludes a dual basin sink on a granite countered vanity. Wall and floor materials are natural stone derivatives. But wait, there's more! The lower level features an enormous finished basement with waterproof luxury vinyl flooring .
