Overview
Welcome to 438 Morningstar Rd, a unique two-family residence that houses two duplex apartments. This property, conveniently located near stores, buses, and the expressway, underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2017. The refurbishment seamlessly blends modern updates with the original colonial’s elegance and charm. The first-floor unit features a chef’s kitchen equipped with white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry. It also offers a spacious living and dining room, two bedrooms, and a bathroom with double vanities. A staircase leads down to a large, well-lit finished basement. The second-floor unit mirrors the high-quality finishes of the first-floor unit and offers three bedrooms and a finished attic.
