    Step into this beautifully restored and renovated 1920s "Kenwick-style" Craftsman home, offering 1,705sf of inviting living space that's close to downtown and many popular up-and-coming shopping/dining/art venues, at a very affordable price! Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years, this home showcases an expanded kitchen with newer countertops, cabinetry, appliances, and fixtures that flow seamlessly into a spacious dining area—perfect for entertaining or just everyday living.

The renovated second floor includes a spacious primary suite with double vanities and a large walk-in closet. A rear laundry room creates an ideal drop-zone entry, and a durable metal roof offers long term energy savings. Enjoy a fully fenced private backyard, off-street parking pad, and the added value of a city approved permit for a future detached garage. Easy access to downtown, New Circle Road, and an unbeatable walkable lifestyle—this beautiful home truly stands out!!
