I consider this one of the coolest city homes that I have ever listed for sale. Very unique floor plan and well maintained, this brick and stucco home has a large foyer that contains a convenient powder room. Large living room with brick fireplace (never used!) and plenty of windows. Large bright dining room that leads through to the kitchen. Cute kitchen with tile floor and tile backsplash. The rear area is a very private courtyard. Perfect to take some time and relax outside now that the weather is getting better. The home has durable bamboo floors throughout and economical gas heat. On the 2nd floor the bedrooms are nice sized and all feature spacious closets. The primary bedroom is in the rear of the home. The main bath has marble floors and a tub/shower plus a conveniently located stacked washer and dryer. Large attic and large basement for plenty of storage. Economical gas heat and reasonable taxes. This home has plenty of character and charm and the fresh paint colors will make you feel right at home.
