About this home

Inside the home

This one-owner 1974 brick bungalow in Henderson/Ava Heights has been carefully kept since it was built. The main floor delivers hardwood floors, plantation shutters throughout, and a formal dining room that could convert back to a third bedroom. The kitchen is functional but carries its 1990s oak cabinet and green laminate counter look — the main area buyers will want to address. The main bathroom has a newer floating vanity alongside the original tub surround. Downstairs, the finished basement adds a rec room with a brick gas fireplace, a bedroom, a 3-piece bath, and a laundry room. The rear yard is a genuine asset: flat, fenced on one side, with a stone retaining wall, storage shed, concrete patio with gas BBQ hookup, and mature tree cover. Parks and tennis courts are within easy walking distance.

  • Hardwood floors throughout main living areas
  • Plantation shutters on most windows
  • Finished basement with gas fireplace rec room and extra bedroom
  • Mature, treed lot with stone retaining wall and storage shed
  • Separate side entry to basement staircase
  • Proximity to park with tennis courts and splash pad based on aerial shots
  • One-owner home, well-maintained overall
From the listing

Welcome to this impeccably maintained one-owner custom built brick bungalow, proudly offered for the first time since it was built in 1974. Nestled in a private location, this charming home offers the perfect combination of comfort, quality, and convenience. The main floor features a welcoming covered front porch, a bright eat-in kitchen, and a spacious living room highlighted by a large picture window, beautiful hardwood flooring, and California shutters on the windows. The formal dining room was originally designed as a bedroom and could easily be converted back to create a third main floor bedroom if desired. Two additional bedrooms and a well-appointed 4-piece bathroom with a relaxing whirlpool tub complete the main level. The finished lower level provides plenty of additional living space with a generous rec room featuring a cozy gas fireplace, an extra bedroom, a 3-piece bathroom, and a laundry/utility room with durable tile flooring. You’ll also find a workshop/storage room and a convenient cold cellar. Step outside to enjoy the private rear yard complete with a patio area with gas BBQ hookup - ideal for entertaining. A side door entrance provides easy access into the home. The rear yard has a retaining wall (2014) and convenient storage shed for toys and garden equipment. Located in a quiet, private setting that’s perfect for walking and biking, yet still close to all amenities you need, this lovingly cared for home is a rare opportunity you won’t want to miss.
