Tucked into the highly sought after Founders Grove neighborhood, 1906 E Taylor St is the kind of home that makes you slow down and smile, a beautifully renovated Craftsman bungalow that blends timeless 1920s charm with the modern updates today's buyers want. Step onto the inviting covered front porch and picture crisp fall evenings, coffee mornings, and porch chats with friends. Inside, you'll love the bright, open feel as the living room, dining area, and updated kitchen flow together for everyday living and easy entertaining. The kitchen shines with granite countertops, newer cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a pantry that actually fits your life. The main floor offers two bedrooms and a full bath, plus the convenience of laundry in the primary bedroom. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms and a second full bath, perfect for guests, a home office setup, or room to grow. Out back, a quaint covered porch leads to the patio, backyard, and a two-car detached garage, giving you the outdoor space and storage you've been hoping for. Major improvements have already been handled, with many completed in 2018: refinished original hardwood floors, full kitchen remodel, fresh paint, electrical and plumbing updates, new windows, roof, garage door, HVAC, and water heater. Additional upgrades include new concrete covering the full crawl space (2022) and a rebuilt and reinforced basement stair stringer (2022). Classic character, thoughtful renovation, and a prime Founders Grove location, this one is the total package.
