2916 Emporia Street

Description

This stunning home offers the best of both worlds: a prime location in south Central Park AND updates that make it feel like one of the new homes up north. Ideally tucked between the Eastbridge Town Center and Stanley Marketplace and only a block from the Rec Center and Westerly Creek trails, it features gorgeous refinished hardwoods, stylish new light fixtures, fresh paint from top to bottom and brand new carpet. Guests enter through the front door into the formal living room, a spectacular space with two stories of windows climbing the vaulted ceiling and a magnificent wrought iron railing that wraps up the staircase and around the loft. Homeowners are more likely to enter through the garage or off the driveway, passing through a spacious mudroom with separate areas for storage and laundry, and a built-in desk - ideal for stowing coats, backpacks and mail out of sight of the living quarters. The open kitchen is the heart of the home, with ample counter space, a large island, and seating at the breakfast bar. The dining room is on one side with views across the street to a pocket park, and the family room is on the other side with a cozy fireplace and French doors to the back deck and private yard. The primary suite and secondary bedrooms are upstairs, along with a loft overlooking the living room. Use it as an office, playroom, reading nook, Peloton area - OR - if you need a fourth bedroom, simply wall it off and add a door and closet, just like John Laing offered when they were building this wonderful home. The unfinished basement provides plenty of storage and room to grow.
