Kermit said it's not easy being green, but this charming Cape Cod revival in the heart of beloved Trinity Park would beg to differ. Completely renovated in 2015 and beautifully buttoned up, this home gracefully preserves its 1930s character while offering the comfort and reliability of modern living. Original hardwoods, fireplaces, book nooks, exposed brick, and wide moldings honor the home's history, while replacement windows, updated lighting, electrical and plumbing systems, and a tankless water heater offer peace of mind. Thoughtfully remodeled bathrooms feature double vanities, timeless tile, and built-in shelving, while a bright kitchen offers ample cabinetry and countertop space, gas range, and pantry storage. A sweet butler's pantry nods to the home's original era -- perfect for a coffee station or your Sonic ice maker (because you deserve it). On the main level, both formal living and family rooms provide flexible gathering spaces, while upstairs offers three bedrooms plus a small office for work or whatever avocation calls your name. And then there's the basement. A huge finished lower level with multiple rooms, windows, and exterior doors creates endless possibilities for hobbies, fitness, entertaining, crafting, music, gaming, or guest space. Add a bathroom for a private suite? Finally get that ping pong or pool table? The dream is alive down here. Even the beautiful barn door tells a story -- crafted from one of the original garage doors and thoughtfully restored during the 2019 basement renovation. Outside, versatile spaces abound for every season and mood: dinner on the deck, reading on the screened porch, drinks around the fire pit, or catch on the lawn. But perhaps the greatest joy of Trinity Park living is simply walking out your front door and into the neighborhood. Walk to the East Campus loop, Joe Van Gogh, Trinity Park and Playground, Ellerbee Creek Trail, Rose's Noodles and Bake Shop, Brightleaf Square, George Watts Elementary, and the list goes on. I'd say it's pretty easy to be Green here -- and it's where you want to be.
