**Welcome to The Brick Arch** - a fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath solid brick home that blends 1925 craftsmanship with a complete top-to-bottom rebuild. Named for its iconic hand-laid brick arch at the entry, this home is as structurally sound as it is stunning. In 2022, every major system was replaced: new roof, windows, plumbing, electrical, HVAC (Furnace AND Central Air Conditioner), and water heater PLUS new water line and sewer line to the street - giving the next owner the character of a century-old home with the peace of mind of new construction. Gleaming hardwood floors run throughout the main and upper levels, and recessed lighting, a custom wrought-iron staircase, and a gas-starter brick fireplace anchor the wide-open living room that flows seamlessly into a sun-drenched dining room and a fully redesigned kitchen. The kitchen delivers: white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, subway tile to the ceiling, stainless steel appliances including a gas range, and a breakfast bar with open floating shelves. Patio doors off the dining room open to a private deck and a deep, landscaped backyard. The main level also features a fully renovated full bathroom with a frameless glass shower, hex mosaic tile floors, and quartz vanity. Upstairs, three bedrooms with hardwood floors and original wood-paneled doors offer warmth and character, served by a second full bathroom with tub and shower. A finished half bath in the basement adds extra convenience. The full basement adds 830 square feet of versatile living space - currently set up as a rec room and lounge - with its own exterior walk-out entry, in-unit washer/dryer with utility sink, and room to grow. Two-car detached garage completes the package. Conveniently located near parks, trails, Victory Park, Vista Medical Center East, Naval Station Great Lakes, shopping, dining, and commuter transportation. Schedule your showing today!
