3441 45th Avenue S

Welcome to this meticulously maintained and truly special home in the beloved Howe neighborhood, just blocks from Seven Oaks Oval and the West River Parkway. The curb appeal is straight out of a storybook, featuring warm red brickwork flower boxes and arched doorway, steep architectural rooflines that give the home its timeless charm, and happy lush bushes and trees. Delight in the beautifully refinished hardwood floors, rich original woodwork and inviting wood burning fireplace anchoring the living room. The main floor offers a comfortable bedroom, a spacious kitchen with ample storage, and a convenient half bath. The stairway to the upper level is its own piece of art with access to a small deck through an early 20th century wood door with divided glass panes, showcasing period craftsmanship. On the upper level, you’ll discover two very large bedrooms, each with surprisingly generous closets for the era, plus a bonus room with a built-in twin bed, making the home live like a four bedroom. A full bathroom with vintage white and blue tile completes this level. The lower level has a cozy wood-paneled family room, a charming chalkboard built in, and abundant storage spaces in the laundry and utility rooms. This home has been lovingly cared for by the same owners for over six decades. Exciting wallpaper and vintage light fixtures!! New roof/gutters/metal window and trim wrap last year, new furnace and AC in 2022. Come see this Howe treasure in an ideal location with vintage charm and impeccable stewardship!
