Tucked back from the street, this sweet cottage features a lush garden and a perfect little dog run out back. With charm galore and love sprinkled into every nook and cranny. This home checks all the boxes and is a fantastic condo alternative. Originally built in 1925 with just a single bedroom, it was enhanced with a beautiful and fully permitted primary bedroom addition in 2015. Its classic charm has been maintained with reclaimed materials and upgraded with master carpenter craftsmanship. Too many updates to list, including: a new sewer line (2015), a refreshed bathroom (2025), flooring (2025), a refinished porch (2025), an updated kitchen (2015), a mini-split heat pump/AC (2020). With a prolific garden and flowering plants, this yard is a feast for the senses and your palate! Just a few blocks from the magic of Columbia Park, the delights of Kenton, and Arbor Lodge.
