Nestled on a brick street in the Historic Kenwood neighborhood, this beautifully maintained pool home offers the balance of city living with peaceful comfort. Ideally positioned between the vibrant EDGE and Grand Central Districts, you'll enjoy easy access to an eclectic mix of galleries, beloved local businesses, restaurants and bars. This prime location also offers exceptional connectivity to I-275, making travel throughout the city convenient. The Trails Crossing project is a visionary public-private partnership transforming four blocks beneath the I-275 into a dynamic park featuring biking paths, illuminated murals, playground, container-style retail, dog park, sculptures, and a green amphitheater—creating a vibrant new hub for recreation and community just steps from your door. The home itself boasts concrete block construction (a rarity in the neighborhood) in a High-and-Dry flood zone elevation, providing peace of mind and long-term savings. Upgrades that improve storm protection and energy efficiency include: 2020 metal roof w/ hurricane clips and spray foam insulation, 2022 storm impact windows, and 2022 vaulted pool enclosure. In addition to significantly reduced insurance costs this home has earned Platinum certification from Pearl, a nationally recognized leader in home performance ratings, thanks to a new high efficiency heat pump and ducts, hospital-grade filtration with fresh air ventilation, renewable solar power w/ electric vehicle charging and smart tech monitoring for air quality and energy usage. These strategic home improvements keep electric costs to a minimum. Interior highlights include a peaceful atmosphere with abundant natural light; as you walk into the main living room you’ll notice original floors and graceful cove ceiling while appreciating the absence of city sounds, thanks to upgraded windows and insulation. The thoughtful split floor plan has two bedrooms with deep reach-in closets, a shared bathroom with tub and additional laundry hook-ups for an optional second laundry space. The beautiful eat-in kitchen features GE induction range and Cafe refrigerator. Large picture windows grace the kitchen and formal dining room, where you’re greeted by built-in service bar with matching granite countertop. The home features over 300 additional heated square feet of multipurpose office space. The private owner’s retreat sits on the North side of the home with separate access to the enclosed patio. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with native landscaping and a heated saltwater pool, enclosed for added comfort and privacy. Behind the property there is alley access w/ parking pad and secure gate. The side yard has three rain barrel tanks and raised garden beds. A flourishing productive garden in the front provides attractive low maintenance curb appeal while growing herbs, fruits and veggies. Weather sensing micro irrigation, landscaping mulch, and artificial turf ensure hassle-free enjoyment year round. Whether hosting around the tropical pool, tending the garden, or basking in the tranquility of a truly energy-efficient home, this property has it all.
