TIMELESS GATEWOOD CHARM WITH BEAUTIFULLY PRESERVED CHARACTER! Built in 1925 and thoughtfully updated, this Gatewood home offers the character of another era with today's conveniences. Original wood floors run throughout the home and have been beautifully refinished, creating warmth and continuity from room to room. More than 40 windows fill the home with light. A welcoming vestibule with coat closet opens to the spacious living room, where a fireplace creates a gathering place. A side entrance from the covered front portico leads directly into the living room. The large dining room flows into the updated kitchen, featuring a large island with workspace and abundant storage, including pull-out cabinets and drawers. A gas range, dishwasher, farmhouse sink, subway tile backsplash and custom glass-front cabinetry with interior lighting add function and character. The main level also offers a full bath and convenient laundry area with access to the backyard and garage. One of the home's most delightful surprises is a hidden bookcase door leading to the basement, where the home's mechanical systems, water heater, water shutoff and the like are located. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms, each with a closet, plus a full bath. One intriguing space is a spacious bedroom-sized room with its own fireplace that has most recently been used as a sitting/dressing room rather than a traditional bedroom. Directly connected is the room above the front portico, which has served as an expansive primary closet. Together, these rooms create a flexible private retreat—perfect for a bedroom with sitting room, office, dressing room or private retreat. Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard and detached two-car garage. Located in sought-after Gatewood, this is a rare opportunity to own a home where original architectural character, thoughtful updates and timeless neighborhood appeal come together. You don't find houses like this every day. WELCOME HOME!
