The classic brick exterior, real wooden beams, arched doorways, and a stone fireplace bring the charm to this gorgeous cottage home while an updated kitchen and main bathroom, plus the added 2nd bathroom in the basement bring modern functionality. You don't want to miss the dreamy, fully fenced backyard that blooms so beautifully in the Spring and Summer that you can treat the deck and patio as your own secret garden. Bonus: the garden shed and chicken coop are staying with the property so that you can get a jump start on your outdoor hobbies! Located in historic Chautauqua Park, this home feels quiet and secluded while being minutes from the growing number of boutique shops and restaurants in Highland Park, the vibrancy of Downtown DSM, or the coziness of the Beaverdale business district. Updates include professionally trimmed trees, radon mitigation system, and a NEW water service line. Don't wait! Make it yours today!
