This is the one people wait for-and rarely find! A like-new picture perfect Craftsman with a sprawling rocking chair front porch, tucked behind lush landscaping on a fully fenced half-acre lot. This home delivers a level of character, function, and self-sufficiency that is almost impossible to replicate. Inside, sunlight pours across newly refinished oak hardwood floors and fresh paint, while three full levels of living unfold with effortless flow. The heart of the home-a beautifully refreshed kitchen-features quartz countertops, marble backsplash, stainless steel appliances, bar seating, and updated fixtures, all opening to a cozy, connected living space. But it's the outdoor living that truly sets this home apart. Double screened porches with brand new custom screens- one off the den and a dedicated private porch off the primary suite create a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle that feels like a retreat. An additional grilling deck is conveniently situated by the kitchen. Morning coffee, evening wine, summer dinner parties- there's a space for all of it. The primary suite is a sanctuary of its own, complete with a spa-like bath featuring a clawfoot tub, double rain head shower, and a walk-in closet with laundry chute. Downstairs, the fully finished 1,300sf walk-out basement-with 10-foot ceilings, stained concrete floors, kitchenette, wet bar, and full bath-offers the ultimate flexibility: in-law suite, guest retreat, income potential, or the coolest hangout space you've ever seen. And then... the extras you didn't think you'd find in one home: a temperature-controlled FOUR-car garage with MIG/TIG welder connections is a dream for car enthusiasts and hobbyists alike. A flagstone entertaining area with fire pit is hidden deep in the yard and anchored by mature landscaping, garden beds, irrigation, and landscape lighting. Hot tub hookups are ready to go just outside the basement level doors. And perhaps most impressive of all-a 37-panel/6 battery solar system with backup delivers net-zero electricity costs, blending luxury with true energy independence. All of this in an unbelievable location on Kirkwood's prettiest tree-lined street, just steps from Kirkwood Village and an easy stroll to Bessie Branham Park, 2nd + Hosea, Drew Charter School, YMCA, and Oakhurst Village.
