This single-level mid-century gem, lovingly cared for by the same family for over 30 years, is ready for the next owner to make it their own. Built in 1950, this corner-lot home has an open floor plan with a cozy fireplace. Sliding glass doors off the dining room open to a generous patio and yard with mature fruit trees and roses. Three sun-filled bedrooms are adjacent to the original bathroom, tiled in cheery tones of pink and turquoise. The bright kitchen, with original cabinetry and tile, connects to a spacious laundry room with washer/dryer, utility sink, and ample storage. A wood-paneled room at the front of the house offers a versatile bonus space, perfect for an office or family room. The two-car detached garage intrigues with potential. Discover the conveniences of the South Shoreview neighborhood, with easy bike or walking access to nearby green spaces such as the Bay Trail, Seal Point Park, or Coyote Point Recreation Area, and just minutes from downtown's bustle and freeways.
