This Bonnie Brae home sits three blocks from the shops and restaurants on South Gaylord and about a seven minute walk to Wash Park, so you get the walkable lifestyle without the Wash Park price tag. The main floor has two bedrooms, an open living room with great natural light, and refinished hardwood floors. The kitchen is bright and open with stainless steel appliances. Original details remain too, including an arched foyer entry, coved ceilings, two tiled fireplaces, and a built in linen closet. Downstairs you will find two more nonconforming bedrooms, a 3/4 bathroom, and a family room, good for guests, a home office, or rental income. Furnace and central air were replaced in 2022. Newer windows, ceiling fans, and fencing round out the updates, and the primary bath got a new vanity and tile surround. Seller would consider a paint credit for a new owner who wants to change the exterior color. Come see it in person, the location works better than it looks on a map. Walk to Bonnie Brae Ice Cream too.
