Brilliantly reimagined in the past 4 years- Old world infectious charm greets you at the front covered porch, and leads you into the new and well crafted open living spaces, infused with natural light and fresh finishes. While situated conveniently in the urban hub of historic Tobin Hill, just north of Saint Mary's Entertainment District, you are swept away under mature trees, total privacy created by an iron gated driveway and fully fenced 180' yard. Current owners have meticulously blended the quaint original cottage with a large addition including a 20' x 40' kitchen/family room and 15' x 25' master suite with oversized shower and bidet. *All work was permitted and approved.* The original home has 2 sunny bedrooms and a completely updated bathroom, with classic finishes. The kitchen in the original cottage has been converted into a large laundry room, offering ample space for overflow pantry storage and space to fold and iron. Custom VENETA blinds were added to all windows in both original part and new addition. In 2022-2023, During the extensive remodel, all walls throughout the original home and the addition were insulated with foam, the roof was completely replaced, new electrical and plumbing to code in 2022 throughout addition, (2) mini split units providing heat and cool air throughout the new section, as well as a conventional ducted HVAC system in the original section. The back yard is another opportunity for the new resident to add value and their own vision. The shed could be restored, and there is room to add a full garage, ADU, and carport.
