This picturesque brick bungalow is located in Columbia Illinois, and its traditional features blend seamlessly with modern upgrades throughout! A perfect pathway leads you to front steps decorated by beautifully maintained landscaping, and hardwood floors welcome you in. Natural light floods the spacious living room w/ a gas fireplace. An open arched doorway carries you through the dining room and into a kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, plenty of storage, and access to the backyard. Continue down the hallway to find the master bedroom and a full bathroom with beautiful marble tile. Head upstairs to find 2 additional bedrooms, one with full closet and the other w/ walk-in attic space, and a half bath. The outdoor space is its own little world composed of a detached garage, mature trees, and several other vignettes made up of a bird bath, garden trellis, and vibrant greenery. Conveniently located near Highway IL 3, you’re just a short drive to St. Louis.
