In 1997, I was a young Realtor fresh off the turnip truck. I got into real estate because I loved to renovate historic properties. I was hosting an open house on Ashwood Avenue at a home that was half way renovated. The house was a historic gem - a diamond in the rough - and people were standing in a line to talk with me about what would be required to finish this renovation. In that line, I met five buyers that I helped buy homes in the months to come. This house on Westmoreland was one of those transactions, and 28 years later, it's time for me to help the owners as they empty nest. That's the best part of being a Realtor, relationships that are built and last a lifetime. When the current owners bought this home, it was a very sweet cottage. As their family expanded, they added up and out, making this beautiful historic home over 3200 sq ft. The new additions boast high ceilings and historic aesthetics. Now 5 bedroom, the floorplan flows great and lives large. The kitchen is wonderfully sized and the master suite is on the main floor. Two other bedrooms are on the main level. The upstairs addition also boasts high ceilings and contains two nicely sized bedrooms and a family room perfect privately located away from the main living area. The party continues outdoors on the wonderful deck perfectly accented with festive lighting. Next to the historic garage, more for storage, is perhaps the best chicken coop in 37212. The coop can remain or go. Chickens too! The best part of this home, though, is it's location on one of the very best sidewalk lined Hillsboro Village streets. It's quiet and pedestrian friendly. Buy this home now and you'll stay 28 years too. Guaranteed.
