OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY 5 SEPTEMBER 11 AM - 1 PM Cute cottage vibes on the outside, massive space on the inside! This 1938 storybook gem looks cozy from the curb, but packs a serious punch with nearly 2,500 sq ft, 5 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms. Sunlight pours through LARGE and plentiful windows throughout, lighting up authentic vintage features like original keyholes, classic doorknobs, and charming built-in alcoves. The kitchen is ready for your inner chef with sleek granite countertops, generous cabinet space, and a convenient pantry. The main bedroom comes with the coolest plot twist: its own cozy hidden secret room above the garage! Use it as a fun playroom, reading nook, or extra storage space. Plus, you'll stay cozy in the winter and cool all summer with a practically brand-new, energy-efficient mini-split system. Downstairs, the basement features one finished bedroom and tons of raw potential to expand and build instant equity. Outside, enjoy a 1-car attached garage and a lush backyard shaded by mature trees on a delightfully quiet, low-traffic street. Location-wise, you hit the jackpot. Stroll down to the Farmers Market, catch a ballgame at Melaleuca Field, or jog the Greenbelt—all just minutes from your front door, with quick access to Hwy 20, I-15, and Yellowstone Hwy.
