About This Home
Charming Updated Cape Cod on a Corner Lot with Designer Touches Throughout
Welcome to 3418 8th St S, where classic character meets modern living. Situated on a spacious corner lot with a fully fenced 6-foot backyard, this true Cape Cod has been thoughtfully updated throughout the last five years, inside and out.
The main level features a completely open layout with white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and updated stainless steel appliances, including a microwave drawer. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a bright living room with a cozy fireplace. Just off the main living space, a large back den offers a bonus hangout area or perfect playroom.
The home has been freshly painted inside and out, with updated windows, doors, lighting, and finishes throughout. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms with charming Cape Cod angles—full of character but still easy to walk through and enjoy.
Each bathroom is beautifully updated with its own personality:
Upstairs bath: Natural wood vanity, black-and-white tile floors, subway shower walls, and matte black fixtures
Basement bath: Neutral gray vanity, black hex tile, herringbone details, subway walls, and sleek black finishes
Powder room: White penny round tile, gray vanity, and black accents
Downstairs, the basement is a standout with two spacious rec rooms featuring light wood-look tile, a large laundry room with black linen tile and gray cabinetry, and a massive storage room for all your extras.
Love to work out at home? The garage has been transformed into a custom boxing gym complete with a mural, perfect for fitness or a fun flex space.
Additional highlights include:
2-zone HVAC (upper level unit replaced in 2021)
hot water heater 2021
