That charming Midtown home you’ve been dreaming of - the one with character, comfort, and a garden oasis - has just become a reality. This classic 1½-story gem has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully updated by longtime owners. Original hardwood floors throughout the main level lead you to a fully remodeled, modern kitchen (2022). Full baths on both the main and upper levels provide flexibility to suit your lifestyle. The lower level underwent a high-end renovation in 2023, featuring an impressive laundry room that might make chores fun again. Step outside to your own private sanctuary: a lush backyard filled with over 20 species of edible and ornamental plants and trees, floating decks (2023), a greenhouse, and a newly added front shed (2024). It’s outdoor living at its most magical, and most practical. With an original brick exterior, updated roof, and composite siding (2016), this home is as durable as it is delightful. This pre-inspected haven is ready to welcome you home.
