This unique 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home boasts a bright, open layout, a private patio, two balconies, and central A/C.

The first level has a coat closet and powder room off the foyer, along with an inviting living room with hardwood floors and sliding glass doors that open to a secluded rear patio, creating a peaceful spot for morning coffee, barbecues, or simply relaxing outdoors. Upstairs, the expansive main living level is bright and airy, with gleaming hardwood floors and a striking exposed brick accent wall that adds warmth and character. The living room is anchored by a classic fireplace mantel, and sliding glass doors open to a balcony overlooking the greenery across the street. The adjoining dining area offers plenty of room for gatherings, flowing into an updated kitchen fitted with abundant cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a white subway tile backsplash, and a breakfast bar with seating. A beautiful open staircase leads to the third floor, where the generously sized primary bedroom has extensive closet space and its own balcony with leafy neighborhood views. The second bedroom is filled with natural light and offers flexibility for a home office or guests. The full bathroom off the hall features a double vanity, an oversized mirror, and a tiled tub and shower. Downstairs, the basement provides valuable storage and utility space. Utilities include central A/C, gas forced-air heat, and gas hot water. The secure, private parking space is an especially valuable perk in this neighborhood, with easy access to additional parking beneath I-95. 956 S Front St’s fantastic Queen Village location puts you just a short walk from lively South St, lined with an eclectic mix of restaurants, shops, and entertainment.
