Property Description
Welcome to 1717 Penistone – a beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath brick bungalow just steps from Birmingham’s popular Rail District. Enjoy walkability to beloved local spots like Whistle Stop Diner, Griffin Claw Brewery, and The Yard, with Downtown Birmingham only minutes away offering top-tier dining, shopping, parks, and a thriving nightlife. Located within the highly rated Birmingham School District and supported by excellent city services, this home combines charm, comfort, and convenience. Step inside to light oak engineered wood floors and a spacious living room filled with natural light. The main level includes two well-sized bedrooms and a full bath that has been completely remodeled with a pedestal sink and modern stand-up shower. The kitchen features rich cherry shaker cabinetry, stone countertops, black appliances, and a cozy dining nook perfect for casual meals. Upstairs you’ll find brand-new carpeting, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath with a tub/shower combo. The versatile layout allows the smaller bedroom to function as a nursery, home office, or a fantastic walk-in closet to complement a primary suite setup. The partially finished basement offers tons of possibilities – from a rec room or workout space to additional storage or hobby area. Major mechanicals have been updated, including a new furnace and AC in 2021, giving added peace of mind. Outside, enjoy a brand-new, maintenance-free deck and a beautifully designed brick paver patio, ideal for summer entertaining. The sizable backyard is perfect for relaxing evenings with friends and family. Fresh landscaping, new mulch, refinished exterior doors, and recent paint updates round out the curb appeal. Offering over 1,400 sq ft of living space in one of Birmingham’s most desirable neighborhoods – and all under $500,000 – this is a must-see home!
