Property Description

A home owned by the same person since 1966 tells a story. This one has been loved, meticulously cared for, and has taken great care of its owner in return! 106 Superior Avenue is a solid, all-brick midcentury home offering 1,565sf on the main floor, a huge double lot, and an incredible backyard centered around entertaining and gatherings. The outdoor space features a brick house-matching garden shed on concrete, a second metal shed on concrete, and a large circular patio with a brick outdoor fireplace/grilling station. Inside, you'll find a formal living room with a gas fireplace, a family room with beamed ceilings and a second wood-burning fireplace, plus a fantastic 3-season porch with epoxy flooring and retractable windows that let you effortlessly choose between a fully enclosed space or open-air screened porch. The kitchen features updated electric cooktop range, double wall ovens, dishwasher, refrigerator and microwave, while the main-floor bath offers a tiled shower with newer glass sliding doors and an updated vanity. The seller believes oak hardwood floors remain beneath the carpeting in the living room, hallway and all 3 bedrooms (buyer to verify). A remarkably clean, dry basement provides another 1,300 square feet (approx) of potential future living space, with a full drain tile system installed as a precaution that has never been needed. The oversized 2.5-car detached garage includes built-in cabinetry for excellent storage. Major improvements include newer vinyl windows throughout, whole-house natural gas Generac generator, water heater (2023), concrete flatwork, sidewalks and patio with epoxy (around 2020), chimney cap and tuckpointing (2018), dimensional shingle roof and gutter guards (2017), central air (2016), furnace (2015), and updated electrical service with breakers. Harlem School District and an unbeatable location just minutes from major shopping, parks and popular restaurants. Property was recently added to the flood plain; seller believes this was in error, as the property has never experienced flooding during 60 years of ownership, but currently carries flood insurance at approximately $1400/yr. A truly special property with the kind of quality, care and character that is increasingly hard to find. Priced well below FMV for quick sale.
