About This Home

Calling all Bungalow lovers! Resting on a 33' x 123' lot on a quiet low traffic street, this 3-bedroom & 1 bathroom home offers a traditional layout adorned with old-world craftsmanship and boasts a host of luxurious enhancements, designed for comfortable living and effortless entertaining. You can tell this all-brick bungalow has pride of ownership as you drive up and see the impeccable front landscape. After taking in the lovely landscaping out front, walk up to the front door and notice the original stained glass window to your right - you can't miss it... But just wait until you see the interior! Step inside to find the beautiful mosaic tile in the foyer with a coat closet. As you continue your way through the foyer, you will appreciate the pristine original oak floors, genuine tiger oak wood doors and untouched crown moldings, baseboards & door casings throughout much of the main floor including living room, dining room, sunroom, and 3 bedrooms. Past the dining room, the house opens into an airy, bright eat-in kitchen outfitted with Bosch appliances, granite countertops, stainless sinks, Grohe faucet, tumbled marble backsplash, and ample cabinetry for all your culinary needs. What's more, the kitchen floor is bedecked with Saltillo floor tiles, 100% handmade and affectionately personalized with an artist's signature in the corner. Just off the kitchen is a cozy enclosed back porch overlooking the serene backyard of lush colorful gardens. Walk out and down the rear stairs to the secluded yard surrounded by a 6 ft. cedar fence for privacy & for your pets to enjoy the outdoor living. You will also enjoy hosting your summer BBQs or sipping your morning coffee on the brick pavers patio that extends to the back gate and side front gate! Head back inside to a high-end bathroom remodel with onyx surround in the shower and tub combo, matching sink, and custom cabinets. Directly across the bathroom is the door that leads to the two staircases, one for the unfinished attic and the other for the unfinished full basement. Potential expansion for additional living space. Currently, the lower floor features a laundry room with washer and dryer included, huge walk-in closet, front storage room, door that leads out to the backyard and all the additional space you need for recreation, storage & more. This residence has been lovingly owner-occupied by only three owners in its 100+ year history. That tells you a lot about the community - people hate to leave this friendly neighborhood! Walking distance to everything, shops, restaurants, parks, food markets, and public transit. Come see this gem today and call it your own tomorrow! Please view pictures, floor plans and 3-D walkthrough tour before asking to view in person.
