Welcome to 5225 McKean Ave — a striking, fully renovated home blending modern design with warm custom finishes. From the bold curb appeal and elevated front porch to the wide-plank hardwood floors and dramatic open-riser staircase, this home makes an immediate impression. The main level features an expansive open-concept layout with exposed brick, reclaimed wood accent walls, recessed lighting, and a show-stopping chef’s kitchen with oversized granite island, wall oven and microwave, stainless steel appliances, extensive cabinetry, and a sleek vent hood. Upstairs one level, generously sized bedrooms offer great natural light, beautiful hardwood floors and en suite bathrooms in every bedroom. The primary bedroom on the third floor is the length of the house, featuring a spa-inspired bathroom with designer tile, dual vanity, oversized rainfall shower, and an jetted soaking tub for more than one. The basement, accessed through a separate, locked entryway in the back of the house, is a perfect studio style in-law suite, complete with kitchen, full bathroom and laundry access. Outdoor spaces add even more appeal, including a covered patio area with a unique covered entertaining space, built-in bar and brick grill. Additional storage comes in the form of a locked shed mounted above the covered space in the backyard. A rare blend of character, scale, and custom craftsmanship.
