Description

Welcome to York Street Country House, a 1929 classic tucked at the foot of a forest-covered mountain on one of Seneca Heights' most picturesque streets. With over $75,000 in recent upgrades, this 2,934 sq. ft., 4-bedroom, 3-bath home has been lovingly restored to keep its old-world soul while adding the comforts you want today.

Original doors and hardware, gleaming hardwood floors and beautiful built-ins greet you the moment you step into the entry hall. Gather around one of two wood-burning fireplaces, one in the formal living room and one in the den, or host dinner behind antique French doors in the formal dining room. Morning coffee belongs in the sun-drenched sunroom, now finished in brand-new Italian travertine.

The kitchen keeps its charming 1950s vintage character with new Marmoleum checkerboard floors, fresh countertops, and all-new appliances, including a gas stove, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. The main floor bath was fully renovated in 2025 with a soaking tub, a marble-topped antique vanity, and Currey & Company sconces.

Main floor living is easy here. The primary bedroom with two closets, a second bedroom and two full baths, including that beautiful new one, are all on the first level. Upstairs are two more bedrooms with closets, a renovated third full bath, a large walk-in closet on the landing, and a full walk-in attic. The basement adds even more storage.

The big-ticket items are done: updated plumbing and wiring, a newer furnace and hot water tank, a 9-year-old roof, updated windows with custom plantation shutters, fresh paint throughout, and new carpet in the stairwell and upper guest bedroom. The two-car garage has an electric opener.

Outside, mature trees, lush perennials, and a newly fenced backyard (complete with a dog door) create a private, peaceful retreat. Homes with this much character and this many updates don't come along often. Schedule your showing today!
