About 4505 Franklin Ave

Extensively updated and exquisitely maintained, this beautiful slice of history has been tastefully renovated over the years, retaining its charm and class with a sophisticated yet modern approach. You'll swoon over the color palette and newly added finishes throughout. A deluge of light flows naturally around every corner, exposing a traditional plan with defined rooms for entertaining, dining, and, most importantly, nights with the family. Making your way through the home, you'll first be introduced to the family room, with a wood burning stone fireplace, completed nicely by the adjoining marble window sills. This space opens to a formal dining area with direct access to the enclosed 3 seasons room and the charming kitchen space with butcher block countertops and subway tile. There are two guest bedrooms on this level, each with ample closet space. A full bath flanks both rooms and adds a contemporary flair. The owner's suite spans the entire second level and is simply delightful, from the built-ins to the skylights, the walk-in closet, and most importantly, the full bath with chrome and marble finishes. This is your own private oasis. Outside, you'll find a patio space and a detached two-car garage. There are even some raised gardens ready for the spring season. This home is within walking distance of stores, entertainment, parks, and trails. Make this beautiful Beaverdale brick your home today.
