Calling all Midcentury Modern Lovers, this chic home has a timeless style that remains unaltered through the years! Embrace the open functionality, unique windows, built-ins, and hardwood floors. The handsome curb appeal is pleasing to the eye with the perfect combination of stonework, mature shrubbery, and a beautiful Cherry tree that boasts understated elegance inside and out. The layout offers a variety of bedroom options, with two beds and a full bath on the main floor. Private, second-floor owner's quarters with a full bath featuring a vaulted ceiling, skylight, makeup vanity, and ample closet space. The combined dining/kitchen space is a home run! The step saver kitchen layout is as perfect today as in 1958. The oversized countertop with a breakfast bar is a natural conversation hub that overlooks a beautiful bay window, a fireplace, and a built-in corner cupboard. Enjoy the new SS appliances, new recessed LED, and flooring. The huge bay window is perfect for displaying cookbooks, plants, and collectibles, all within reach of the kitchen sink. The family room boasts built-in shelves and wood paneling, offering a variety of wall textures, and has original glass French doors opening to a sunroom overlooking the semi-private backyard that’s a gardener's dream. The Sunroom could also be a main floor office, reading room, or music room. Enjoy the unobstructed view of the backyard regardless of how the space is used. The raised flower beds prove this yard is a grower's dream. Rear alley access is overgrown; however, it can easily be opened should the next owner want to install a second garage/driveway. Recent big ticket items include new Anderson Replacement windows, a new furnace, and a new roof/gutters. Looking for a place to live close to everything and still have a semi-private, flat backyard! Nestled just blocks from campus/downtown in the highly desirable Highlands neighborhood where one can have it all, in terms of location. Embrace the LIFESTYLE, lace up your shoes, and GO!
