Tucked along a quiet, tree-lined stretch of Schenectady's coveted Upper Union Street neighborhood, 1129 Morningside Ave is a beautifully preserved 1924 carriage-style home where timeless character meets modern-day ease. A covered front porch sets a warm first impression, opening into sun-filled interiors wrapped in natural hardwood floors throughout. At the heart of the home, a fully updated eat-in kitchen offers gourmet-level style: gleaming granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an abundance of soft-close cabinetry, including a cabinet designed for effortless removal to accommodate a future dishwasher installation. A more formal dining area is available for those momentous occasions and in the living room, a classic mantle serves as a charming focal point. Currently configured as two bedrooms and two full baths, the primary can be effortlessly divided back into two separate rooms, offering rare flexibility to expand to three bedrooms. A spacious basement annex provides abundant additional storage. Step outside to a private, fenced backyard, a rare find so close to the city center, complemented by an enclosed rear porch made for three-season enjoyment. Some updates include a newer furnace, replacement windows, and a well-kept roof. A detached one-car garage completes the offering. All within an easy stroll to Union Street's shops and cafes, Central Park, and Schenectady local schools. A rare chance to own enduring charm with everyday livability.
