If you love the beauty of classic Rivermont homes, this charming century old home captures that inside and out. Whether it's the intricate and unique window details, the classic woodwork in the foyer, the warm and inviting hardwood floors, or the beautiful decorative fireplaces in almost every room, this home exudes classic charm while offering practical living. The upstairs bedrooms, one of which has a half bath ensuite, have been nicely refreshed with new carpet and paint. There's also main level laundry, a walk-up attic for extra storage or future living space, and convenient off-street parking. With two newer HVAC units, a newer water heater, newer appliances, and new kitchen and bathroom floors, the major components have been taken care of. After a long day, enjoy unwinding for the evening on your full front porch overlooking your flower-filled garden or head out for the evening: Riverside Park, The Academy, downtown restaurants, and the city market are all just minutes away!
