Property Description
New on the market 656 W. Maplehurst Street, a beautifully maintained 1938 Cape Cod in sought-after Northwest Ferndale. Ideally set on an expansive 66-foot lot with mature landscaping, a private side yard, bluestone walkway, inviting sitting porch and classic vestibule entry, this home makes an immediate impression. A fieldstone and brick exterior adds timeless character, while the detached heated two-car garage provides valuable convenience. Original architectural details give a sun-filled living room featuring large windows, a natural fireplace and distinctive artisan mantel, while the spacious formal dining room is highlighted by classic French windows. The kitchen was remodeled in 2016 and offers custom cabinetry, gleaming tile, premium wood flooring, newer appliances and generous pantry storage. The main level was freshly painted in 2024 and also includes a convenient lavatory and an expanded first-floor bedroom with double French doors opening to the living area, providing flexibility for guests, a home office or additional living space. Upstairs, two oversized bedrooms share an exceptionally well-preserved original ceramic-tiled full bathroom, maintaining the charm and craftsmanship of the home's era. The finished basement adds even more usable living space with a gorgeous recreation room, second natural fireplace, full laundry room and additional storage. Numerous other updates, including a new hot water heater installed in 2020, EV charger added in 2023, and a self-watering raised garden bed system perfect for the at-home gardener. With approximately 1,800 square feet, 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a finished basement, 60-foot lot and heated 2-car garage, this home offers the rare combination of authentic architectural character, thoughtful updates and a prime Northwest Ferndale location. A home with the warmth and craftsmanship of yesterday, paired with the conveniences of today.
