    Original fireplaceCharming brick patioFenced-in rear yardMature landscapingInviting front porchHomemade fireclay tileSeparate shower
    In the heart of the original Highlands, this absolutely beautiful bungalow blends timeless charm with modern updates! The eye-catching curb appeal is highlighted by mature landscaping and an inviting front porch. Step inside and prepare to be amazed! The spacious entry hall makes a statement with a stunning, hand-painted mural by local artist Matt McDole. It adjoins both the large living room with original fireplace, as well as the dining room, all with hardwood floors. Recently remodeled, the kitchen boasts custom made cabinetry and floating shelves, homemade fireclay tile, and newer appliances. Two bedrooms, a renovated, classic full bathroom, and a sunroom that overlooks the rear yard complete this level. Upstairs, you'll find the spacious primary suite with an abundance of closet space and French doors to a private, 2nd story deck. The 2nd floor bathroom includes dual sinks, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. The 4th bedroom is perfect for a nursery or home office! Rare for the area, the partially finished basement includes a family/theater room, laundry room with newer washer/dryer, and craft/bonus storage space. The fenced-in rear yard features a charming brick patio, flat lawn area, and a 2.5 car garage with alley access. This home is located just blocks from the popular coffee shops, bars, parks, and restaurants that the Highlands area offers, yet still secluded on a less-traveled street where front porch sitting will become your new favorite pastime!
