A true Millsmont gem, this charming 1920 bungalow has been thoughtfully expanded into a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with an extra building that blends timeless character with modern updates. Inside, you'll find a lovely tray ceiling in the living room, hardwood floors, new dual-pane windows, and a newer high-efficiency furnace/new ducting. The updated two-tone kitchen showcases a hand-stenciled accent wall created by the sellers and is finished with stainless steel sink, newer appliances, and a durable solid-surface countertop. Both bathrooms have been updated with newer fixtures, with a walk-in shower in the Primary bath. A washer and dryer are included with the sale. Outside, the beautifully landscaped front and back yards offer a peaceful retreat with mature plants, Key lime, Meyer lemon, and fig trees, plus raised beds for tomatoes and strawberries. A large canopied entertaining deck overlooks a generous, low-maintenance turf lawn, while the detached garden office/studio with electricity provides flexible space for work, creative pursuits, or exercise/yoga. A one-car garage with additional workshop or storage space completes this special property. With its thoughtful updates, versatile spaces, and inviting outdoor living areas, this unique home is ready to welcome its next chapter.
