Adorable. Check. Location. Check. Walkable + Bikeable. Check + Check. This dreamy cottage checks all the boxes and then some. Pour yourself a sweet tea, relax on the large screen porch and wave "Hey" to the neighbors. Inside you will love the original thin board oak hardwood floors (Swoon!), fresh paint throughout, new light fixtures and a cozy stone fireplace with major charm. The kitchen? Total glow-up:new stainless appliances and gorgeous quartz countertops with under mount sink. Storage? You Bet! Upgrades? BIG ONES - brand new roof, Hardi-Plank siding and vinyl replacement windows (all but 2). This spot is Perfect for the pooches too, with a privacy fenced yard and the big font window for Paw Patrol. But what is better than ALL that? You are just steps from the greenway! Walk to the grocery store, coffee shop, bars and bites. Bike to Uptown, zip to Southpark, or just stay home. This spot makes life easy and fun. Cutest Cottage in Charlotte? We got you!Showings start Saturday.
