About This Home
Tucked along a quiet street, 38 Althea Avenue greets you with pristine landscaping, mature trees, and timeless curb appeal. A paving stone walkway leads you inside, where a slate-floored foyer sets a welcoming tone. The family room features a brick fireplace with a slate hearth and wood-burning stove insert, adding warmth and charm. Sunlight pours through the picture window, complemented by track lighting, hardwood floors, and neutral walls. French doors open to a bright sunroom — a cheerful space to relax or work, surrounded by views of the yard. At the heart of the home, the kitchen offers plenty of space and style with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and an octagonal center island that doubles as a cooking and gathering spot. Down the hall, you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms with hardwood floors and plenty of natural light, plus a full bath with a pedestal sink — combining functionality and character with its fresh blue-and-cream palette. The finished basement extends your living space, offering a recreation room, a powder room, and endless possibilities for hobbies, entertaining, or movie nights. Out back, the fenced yard provides both privacy and space to enjoy — with a paved patio and a grassy area perfect for gardening, barbecues, or simply soaking up the sunshine. 38 Althea Avenue delivers thoughtful details, inviting spaces, and a layout that makes everyday living feel easy and enjoyable.
