This classic all-brick Craftsman has space, charm, and updates in all the right places. With 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a freshly painted exterior, and a rare 2-stall garage off the alley, this one checks boxes that most homes in this price range don't. Inside you'll find hardwood floors, rich wood trim, beamed ceilings, and original built-ins framing a statement fireplace. The updated kitchen features granite counters, white cabinetry, and a sunny breakfast nook. Main floor bedroom and bath offer flexibility, while upstairs includes generously sized rooms and walk-in storage. Sip your coffee on the covered front porch or relax in the private backyard, either way, you're home.
