Don't be a home search martyr, bop into 311 West Carver and experience pure bungalow ardor. Less than 5 miles from city center the location could not be smarter. Enter along a sunny path and into the most welcoming of parlors. Featuring a snappy corner fireplace and wood floors that with age only look sharper. Architecturally hip archway highlights a flexible dining space that's a total charmer. And a well sized kitchen has plenty of counter space for whipping up fresh sauces of tartar (an adjacent laundry space can also serve as an overflow larder). Nicely sized bedrooms with respectable storage will appeal to the most frequent of shoppers. And the cheery bath between them is the opposite of darker. But the best part is out back, with not 1 but 2 screened porch areas; a delightfully rare shocker. Shaded and fenced backyard is eager for its next gardener and detached garage is a single bay that somehow feels larger. So high five your house hunting partner and come check out this total show stopper on Carver.
