Start fresh in the Highlands with either completing a restoration or moving toward a renovation - either way 1800 Sherwood is a fantastic Dutch Colonial ready to welcome its new owners! Nestled in the corner of Norris and Sherwood near the Highlands hub, this 2 BR, 2 FULL BATH home has a lot to give to those who appreciate historic charm. The foyer sets the stage for the first floor with a BEAUTIFUL SPLIT STAIRWAY, and the character continues throughout level 1 with HARDWOOD FLOORS, HIGH CEILINGS, RICH MILLWORK and TRIM, a DECORATIVE FIREPLACE (no chimney) in the LR, clear plexiglass FRENCH DOORS between the formal DINING ROOM and LR, access to a covered BACK PORCH, and a FULL BATHROOM off the kitchen. UPSTAIRS you'll find the second FULL BATHROOM and TWO BEDROOMS, each with 2 WALK-IN-CLOSETS in nonconforming space (not cooled or heated and sloped ceilings). The UNFINISHED BASEMENT began as a dirt floor cellar, but it was dug out by hand decades ago and a concrete floor was poured to make the space much more usable. UTILITY and LAUNDRY services are in the basement, along with a lot of room for storage or spaces that don't need a lot of polish (like a workout room or workshop). The basement also has an exterior entrance that walks up to the backyard which is FULLY FENCED and has a DOUBLE GATE from Norris to allow for temporary parking (like maybe for a contractor... or a moving truck!). It's your chance to elevate a great Highlands charmer and get in the neighborhood for under $300K! You can write your own happy ending in 2024 at 1800 Sherwood Avenue!
