Open Sat & Sun 1pm-3pm! Tucked away on a quiet block in the historic district of South Old Town, this three-level townhouse offers something special: both an edible front garden and a spacious English rear patio. You can enjoy outdoor living all year round, whether you're planting tomatoes in the summer or hosting firepit evenings in the fall.

The main level features a flexible layout with a bedroom, half bath, and family room that opens directly to the brick-walled private patio. Upstairs, the heart of the home has been completely reimagined: a 2022 kitchen renovation creates an open-concept flow with a center island, built-in storage, and generous space for both dining and lounging. The top floor offers three bedrooms and two full baths, including a sunny primary suite with a wall of closets and an updated ensuite bath.

You'll love how the three sides of windows keep the home filled with natural light and give corner unit vibes. And knowing that the major systems have been recently taken care of will give you peace of mind: Roof (2023), HVAC system (2025) and majority of windows (Pella, 2023). There is also attic storage for the seasonal extras.

Need dedicated parking? While the rear patio is a perfect entertaining space, the home also has easement rights on the shared driveway which provides the option to convert for off-street parking if desired.

Primely located, enjoy being a 10-minute walk to Jones Point Park, the King Street scene and Farmer's Market, waterfront parks, restaurants and local favorites like Balducci’s, Trader Joe’s, and Safeway. Dog lovers will appreciate the multiple nearby parks, and neighbors on this friendly St. Asaph block are known to host spontaneous “Sidewalk Schmoozes” when the weather is nice. Being six blocks from King Street means simpler street parking while maintaining easy proximity to the best of this vibrant community. This one is truly your Home Sweet Home!
