Timeless character meets thoughtful updates on one of Monroe's most sought-after streets. This charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath Colonial blends 1923 craftsmanship with modern comfort throughout. Step inside to a spacious living room and dedicated dining area filled with natural light from updated windows, framed by crisp original white trim, wide moldings, and elegant archways. The updated kitchen shines with bright white cabinetry, glass-front uppers, beadboard accents, and an adorable eating nook perfect for morning coffee. Original details are everywhere you look—gleaming hardwood floors, built-in cabinets, French doors, crown molding, and classic brass hardware that give this home warmth and personality you simply can't replicate. Upstairs you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and a refreshed full bath with ceramic tile flooring. The basement offers excellent potential with daylight windows ready to be finished to your taste, a full bathroom, plus a sump pump and drain tile system for peace of mind. Major improvements are already done: furnace, A/C, hot water heater, dishwasher, fresh paint, updated windows, newer roof, and siding. A 1-car detached garage adds convenient storage and parking. An additional parcel is included in the sale, offering extra value and flexibility. Move-in ready with irreplaceable original charm on beautiful Borgess Avenue.
