Single-Story 1924 Craftsman with First-Floor Primary—Everything on One Level Walk into 142 N Birchwood and feel how simple life becomes when everything you need is on one floor. Original hardwood floors. Both bedrooms. Both bathrooms. The kitchen where cooking is a pleasure. No stairs to climb, no divided living—just effortless, flowing space. At the front of the home, the living room anchors the space with a bay window that lets in natural light and frames the neighborhood beyond. The dining room sits nearby, creating a formal gathering area that feels connected but distinct. Moving toward the rear, the eat-in chef's kitchen is where daily life actually happens. A Bertazzoni gas cooktop with pot-filler faucet, stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and an oversized island anchored by glass-front cabinetry define the workspace. Sliding doors open directly from the kitchen to the deck, making it natural to move between cooking and entertaining. The fully fenced flat yard opens beyond—room to breathe, to gather, to simply be. The primary suite delivers the luxury that makes daily life easier: walk-in California closet, double vanity, and a rain-head shower. Your private retreat on the main floor. The second bedroom sits equally accessible. The second bathroom is where vintage charm meets modern comfort: a classic claw-foot tub wrapped in subway tile that rises floor-to-ceiling. The kind of detail that transforms a bath into sanctuary. A rare bonus: the brick gardening enclosure under the rear provides dedicated storage completely separate from the unfinished basement. The mechanicals are current. The two-car detached garage adds both function and character. Nothing to overcome, nothing waiting—the work is done. Crescent Hill, steps from Frankfort Avenue where local shops, galleries, and restaurants give the neighborhood its soul. Walkable in the way that changes your daily rhythm. Close to St Matthews and the Highlands. Single-story living in a home with genuine character. Schedule your showing.
