428 S Howard Street SE

On one of Parkview's most vibrant tree lined streets, this classic Craftsman invites you in with timeless charm, curated updates, and the kind of curb appeal that makes you stop and smile. Manicured landscaping leads the way to a wide front porch, perfect for slow mornings with coffee or unwinding at the end of the day. Inside, the layout feels both open and intentional, seamlessly connected for gatherings while still offering tucked away spaces to recharge. Hardwood floors, coffered ceilings, and custom built-ins add warmth and character, while thoughtful updates keep everything modern and easy. The oversized living room with custom shelving and a cozy fireplace flows into the dining area and sunlit kitchen. Refinished cabinetry, stainless appliances, and a smart design make it a joy to cook and entertain. Just off the living room, a versatile flex space transforms to fit your lifestyle, whether as an inspiring home office, a welcoming guest room, or a creative play space filled with imagination. Tucked off the main level, the elevated primary suite feels like a serene getaway with a fully updated bath featuring designer tile, a walk-in rain shower, and spa-like finishes. Guests can enjoy another main level bedroom with a refreshed hall bath that adds comfort and flexibility. Upstairs, an expansive renovation created a haven for your family to grow. With a large bonus room complete with built in shelving, you will find space for a recreation room, home theater, or studio. An oversized bedroom and full bathroom offer plenty of room for kids and guests to spread out. Through French doors, the backyard becomes an extension of your living space. A large deck is ready for weekend cookouts, the fenced yard is ideal for pets and play, and the landscaping sets the stage for cozy nights around a fire pit. The detached two car garage takes it up a notch with an expansive lofted storage area above, perfect for keeping life organized or dreaming bigger. Picture it as a future home gym, art studio, or hangout loft that grows with you. A remote controlled gate ties in ease and security for everyday living. Enjoy easy access to I 20, and with Kirkwood neighborhood favorites just blocks away, this home balances neighborhood charm with true intown convenience.
