Vintage Craftsman charm with all the right updates! From the moment you step inside, you’ll know this home just feels right. Picture quiet mornings on the newly updated front porch with your coffee in hand, cozy evenings curled up by the easy-to-use gas fireplace, and summer nights spent grilling or gathered around a bonfire in the backyard.
If you love to cook, you’ll appreciate the well-designed kitchen and start imagining what you’ll make first. This sweet bungalow offers two bedrooms, plus exciting potential to create additional finished space in both the basement and attic. The attic has already been spray-foamed at significant expense and is ready for the next phase.
Outside, you’ll love the fully fenced yard—ideal for pets, play, or gardening—along with a spacious two-car garage and an additional parking pad. In spring, the scent of the neighbor’s lilacs fills the air, adding to the home’s undeniable charm.
Set in a fantastic, walkable neighborhood with friendly neighbors, you’re just steps from Amore Coffee, FoodSmith, Harmon Park and its splash pad, and the vintage shops along Smith Avenue. Nearby Robert Street offers every convenience imaginable, plus the Wentworth Library, reopening this spring after an extensive renovation.
Now’s your chance to make this charming bungalow in an equally charming location your own.
