Description
Welcome to 637 Kirkwood Ave - a stately 1924 two-story filled with timeless character, generous space, and architectural details you simply cannot recreate today. Situated on a large corner lot along the highly sought-after Bix 7 race route, this 4 bedroom, 3 full bath home offers over 2,300 finished square feet plus incredible expansion potential. From the moment you step inside, the original craftsmanship stands out. Rich wood trim, solid wood doors, built-ins, arched openings, and a beautiful staircase showcase the quality and charm of the era. Tall ceilings and oversized windows flood the home with natural light, highlighting the original hardwood floors that run throughout much of the property in their authentic finish. The main level features a spacious dining room anchored by a striking stone fireplace (currently sealed), a formal living area, and a rare main floor primary bedroom - a highly desirable layout not often found in homes of this age. A full and guest bath on the main level adds both flexibility and convenience. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, a dishwasher that will remain, and a center island that stays with the home. With its size and layout, there's plenty of room to personalize or expand over time while still enjoying the character of the existing space. Upstairs you'll find additional large bedrooms and a full bathroom, providing exceptional flexibility for living arrangements, guests, or work-from-home needs. With three total baths, this home delivers functionality rarely available at this price point. The walk-up attic offers an additional approx. 936 square feet of unfinished space, perfect for storage or future finishing potential. The unfinished basement (936 square feet, MOL) provides even more storage and utility space. Outside, the corner lot provides yard space and great curb presence, while the detached 2-car garage adds practical convenience. With 2,372 finished square feet, 4 true bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, original woodwork, and a main floor primary, this is a rare opportunity to own a spacious character home with room to grow. If you appreciate craftsmanship, historic charm, and space that feels substantial, 637 Kirkwood Ave delivers.
