Set in the heart of Belmont, this charming 2-bedroom, 2 full bath home offers a rare mix of character and meaningful updates. It’s the kind of place that feels welcoming the moment you arrive.

The covered front porch sets the tone right away. A classic swing invites slow mornings and relaxed evenings, while two mature pine trees add natural privacy, giving the home a tucked-away feel from the street. It’s more than curb appeal—it’s a space you’ll actually use and enjoy every day.

Inside, the home immediately feels open and inviting, with taller ceilings, oversized baseboards, and detailed door casings that give each room a strong sense of presence. Natural light fills the space through multiple windows, highlighting the original character while keeping everything bright and comfortable.

The staircase serves as a timeless focal point—adding charm and structure without ever feeling outdated.

The kitchen blends function with opportunity. Equipped with a newer gas stove, refrigerator, microwave, and washer/dryer, it’s fully usable from day one, while still leaving room for upgrades like a dishwasher to increase long-term value. Just off the kitchen, the enclosed back porch creates a flexible bonus space—perfect for storage, a mudroom setup, or even a cozy sitting area.

Downstairs, the lower level expands the home’s footprint with a finished family room and a second full bathroom. Glass block windows bring in light while maintaining privacy, making this space ideal for guests, a home office, or a secondary living area.

Major mechanical updates are already handled, including HVAC (2018) and a hot water tank (2023), along with newer vinyl siding and roof—meaning fewer upfront headaches and more focus on making the space your own.

Step outside and the backyard delivers exactly what buyers want: space, privacy, and potential. Fully fenced and generously sized, it features rose bushes and a lilac bush that add seasonal color and charm. A detached garage rounds it out with practical storage or workshop potential.

This isn’t a sterile, flipped house with no soul. It’s a property with real character, solid updates, and room to add value—whether you’re buying to live in or to invest.
