Original 1929 character meets thoughtful modern updates in this stylish, ultra cool three bedroom, two bathroom urban cottage. Newly refinished fir floors bring warmth, patina, and a sense of craftsmanship rarely found in newer homes. The functional kitchen features granite tile counters, oak cabinetry, and a layout designed to make the most of the available space. A remodeled main-floor bathroom with classic subway tile pairs beautifully with open living and dining areas that create an easy, inviting flow. Two bedrooms complete the main level, while the spacious upstairs primary suite offers vaulted ceilings and an opening skylight for a bright retreat that feels like you’re sleeping under the stars. A sunny ensuite bathroom and extra closet space round out the upstairs space. The large unfinished basement includes laundry and generous storage potential. An attached, finished, insulated, and heated one-car garage with new sliding glass doors opens to the fenced backyard, offering private outdoor space close to the heart of the city. Additional updates include a brand new roof, interior paint and carpets throughout. Mixed Use zoning adds valuable flexibility, including the potential for operating a small business from home (Buyer to verify zoning uses). Conveniently located close to shopping, schools, and amenities, this turnkey cottage is equally a part of the residential neighborhood and thriving urban setting.
