About 522 Sims Ave

This Shandon zero lot line home is in Sims Court and has been been thoroughly renovated in recent years and features outstanding outdoor living space. The main floor is fantastic with gorgeous living and dining rooms, a beautiful eat-in kitchen, and a fabulous master suite with a luxury bath and huge walk-in closet. From the living room and master suite, there are French doors leading to the screen porch. Just off of the spacious screen porch is a very private courtyard. On the second floor, you'll find two bedrooms (one is currently set up as a den) that share a very nice and unique Jack-and-Jill bath. Each bedroom has access to its own vanity and toilet, and there is a tub/ shower in the middle. The second floor also has a bonus room and walk-in attic. The kitchen was renovated and the back porch enlarged and screened in 2019, the HVAC equipment was installed in 2020 and is especially quiet, the tankless water heater was installed in 2021, and the upstairs bath was renovated in 2024. Located in Sims Court - a five patio home enclave between Blossom and Wheat Streets - this property is just a few blocks from the Devine Street District where you'll find great shopping, restaurants, and more.
