Keep your budget and your lifestyle manageable with this right-sized porchfront row that just exudes charm from every corner. In an awesome Cedar Park location, this home has all the right vibes from original hardwood floors, turned staircase and leaded glass transom and is made all the warmer with tons of gorgeous natural light throughout. On the main floor, the classic rowhome footprint has a sweet curved archway that connects the living and dining rooms. The rear kitchen with solid wood cabinets, Formica countertops and ceramic tile backsplash with floral tile accent is in more-than-just-functional condition while you plan your dream update. The ceramic-tiled shed kitchen just behind it has a full wall of wood shelving for overflow storage—or use it to stash gardening supplies for the raised planting beds that are ready to go out on the back patio. Upstairs, the spacious front and rear bedrooms are nice and bright thanks to the bay window in the front and exposures from two directions in the back. The serene middle room is sized to be a true bedroom but would also make a great bonus space for a home office, yoga space or hobby room. The roomy hall bath features a skylight , sweet blue vanity, neutral porcelain tile floors and original cast iron tub with ceramic tile surround. The basement, accessed off the dining room, has great ceiling height, plenty of space for storage and full-size laundry plus utility sink. The best of Baltimore Ave is at your fingertips, and both Cedar and Clark parks are super close.
