319 Maple Street W

As sweet as its name, this home on Maple Street on the North Hill is one of those special places that only comes along once in a great while. It's filled to the brim with the charm of yesteryear, and the updates were made with a thoughtful hand, using finishes that complement its history rather than compete with it. Nine-foot ceilings and tall windows set the tone, while white enameled woodwork, hardwood floors, and a built-in buffet carry that character from room to room. The large updated kitchen pairs butcher block counters and open shelving with plenty of cabinetry, and you have both an informal eat-in space and a generous dining room for the holidays and special gatherings. A main floor powder room is accented with Carrara marble tile flooring. The four-season sunroom may just become your favorite toasty winter spot in the house, with a fireplace and a wall of windows overlooking the fenced back yard. Three exceptionally large bedrooms are on the second floor plus a bonus room adjacent to the primary, perfect for an office, exercise room, or nursery. Outside, front and back porches invite you to sit a while, a shed keeps the lawn tools organized, and the heated garage offers a utility sink and EV charging capability. The big-ticket items are done: a new roof, a newly lined sewer line from the house to the street, and the sellers have already paid the $10,000 street improvement assessment, which included new gas and water lines to the house. Walk to downtown, explore the trails through the ravine and around McKusick Lake, or head up the street to the community pickleball courts and garden, all from a quiet, friendly, well-kept neighborhood. A true North Hill gem to be excited about!
