Step into 1950s style, design, practicality, and easy of living in the wonderful Columbia City Mid-Century home. The woodburning fireplace and original wood paneling play center stage in this living room. And the beautiful hardwood floors flow throughout the upstairs. Downstairs, the seller has created a sweet spot to cozy up with your honey for a movie night, play board games with your peeps, or get quiet book reading time. There is also a small kitchen, a bedroom, and a 3/4 bath, which makes this a great potential rental unit or space for your guests. There is even private access to the downstairs from the side yard. Speaking of yards—this one is fantastic. Don't miss the TWO patios! There is one off the dining room and then you can follow the path to the circular patio on the eastside of the home. Both perfect for outdoor dining or relaxing with your morning coffee. This home is situated away from the bustle of central Columbia City but still just blocks to amazing spots like Geraldine's Country, Marination, Tutta Bella, La Medusa and the light rail station.
