Wow!! Here is the house you've been waiting for that checks all those boxes. Well maintained, character, and plenty of room for everybody! Immediately when you walk in you'll fall in love with the open concept. The spacious kitchen opens up to the living room. So many thoughtful details in this home including tons of built in storage and shelves. Just off the living room you'll find a non-conforming 4th bedroom or a flex space that can be used for a playroom, office, or you can open it back up to the living room. The lower level living room is the ultimate entertainer's dream! You will love the built in storage areas, brickwork and bar area. If the inside doesn't impress you - the outside is going to blow you away! Massive deck with a bench overlooks your mostly fenced yard and double car garage. Don't miss out on this south side gem! Sellers request all offers are received by Thursday at 8pm (6/29) with a decision delivered by 10am on Friday (6/30)
