What's special

First-timers and investors, check out this sweet cream puff! Walk, bike or bus to campus and downtown - and to just about anywhere from this location. Darling bungalow with loads of charm. Beautiful refinished maple floors, vaulted ceiling and classic arch between rooms. So much newness here (most ages unknown): Roof and 2 Skylights, really large Anderson double-hung tilt-in windows, fully fenced back yard with beautiful tall vinyl privacy/security fence, newer furnace, epoxy coating on garage floor, stamped concrete on part of the driveway & part of the pool deck (2024), water softener (2025), light fixtures (2026), kitchen flooring (2026), front door (2026). Delightful right-sized in-ground pool with slide and safety pool cover.
