About 445 E Catawba Ave

Full of character, charm, and updates this solid brick Cape in historic Firestone Park is ready to welcome you home! Walking into the bright living room you'll find the first of 2 beautiful wood-burning fireplaces and gleaming hardwood floors. From there you can plan dinner parties and holiday hang-outs in the formal dining room, right off of the updated white kitchen featuring granite counters and updated appliances. The primary bedroom is on the first floor along with a spacious second bedroom or home office. Both of these rooms feature double closets for plenty of storage with the main floor bath located conveniently between them. Upstairs there are so many closets you'll have to find things to store! There are two nice-sized bedrooms (each with a window, door, and closet), but you have to go through the one room to get to the other and only one is counted, however it would be a great double office space, playroom and bedroom, or just fun for siblings to share the upstairs area. The partially finished basement has so much potential. For starters--there is a full bath just waiting for your touch. There is a storage area with six individual closet areas for whatever hobby you enjoy, and a large rec room with second wood-burning fireplace that would be great for entertaining. If that wasn't enough, the charming breezeway connects the house to the one-car garage and is perfect for a good book or morning coffee. A second two-car garage is perfect for additional car storage, workshop area, etc. A fenced-in backyard with raised gardening beds and a quaint patio area create the ideal private oasis outdoors. The space has been freshly painted, and the basement floor has just been epoxied. This home has so much to offer! Schedule a visit and make it yours!
