Coming Soon- No Showings until 12/17 This adorable, all brick cottage is just a few blocks from Washington Park. Expect to be impressed with the amount of room this home offers. Imagine your next Christmas in your new living room, Christmas tree in front of your updated windows, stockings hung over the fireplace. All the family gathered round the table in the formal room while the mess remains in the kitchen. The hardwood floors make clean up an absolute breeze. Send the kids upstairs to play in the two super generous sized bedrooms. Don't be surprised to find them paying hide in seek in all of the different storage locations and walk in closet space. Upstairs bathroom has dual sinks and a tiled walk in shower, no need for them to come back down and disturb the rest of the party. If you like character, then you will love all of the built in drawers and shelves this home has to offer. Did I already mention how adorable this home is? Easy back yard access from the kitchen. Fenced in backyard and detached 2 car garage. Full basement with a toilet in case you just have to go and can't make it back upstairs. This home has been preinspected and is most likely on someone's Christmas list! New roof in 2020, new windows in 2012, AC new in 2022.
