Welcome to a lovingly maintained 1948 Cape Cod gem located in the Portage Public Schools district that boasts original architectural charm throughout. Nestled on a half-acre (4 city lots), this home features a galley kitchen with warm oak cabinetry, a bright living room with maple hardwood floors, and a plaster-detail ceiling that adds undeniable character. Enjoy the all-season comfort of the front three-season porch with modern replacement windows. With 2 bedrooms on the main level plus 2 upstairs, floor-to-ceiling closets, and iconic Art Deco shelving, there's space for everyone. The full, open basement awaits customization—with laundry, a functional block shower, and plenty of storage—for a bonus rec room or workshop. Outside, a generous two-car detached garage with multiple doors, a service entry, and ample windows complements a garden shed and mature, shade-giving trees.
