There's a specific kind of quiet you only get at the end of a street where there is no through traffic, no headlights sweeping across the living room, just your own driveway. This rambler sits at exactly that point in Finn Hill, one of Kenmore's most sought-after neighborhoods, zoned to the award-winning Northshore School District and a five-minute drive from St. Edward State Park. Inside, most of the home features original hardwood floors with a living room that holds a wood burning fireplace, and a second bonus room that is just the extra space you need for comfortable living. The kitchen has been beautifully updated: new flooring, granite counters, updated appliance package and adjacent to a dining area that looks out to the lush backyard. Down the hall, three bedrooms and a fully renovated bath keep daily flowing easily. But the real argument for this house is outside. The backyard is large, fully fenced, and shaded by mature trees that have clearly been the longest residents in the neighborhood. It's the kind of yard where a hammock makes obvious sense, where the outside world gets noticeably quieter the second the gate closes behind you.
