Welcome to 5603 W 8th St! This move-in ready 3 bedroom, 2 bath Denfeld traditional, designed by John Hennessy, boasts a steel and stucco exterior, vinyl windows, architectural shingled roof on house (3-tab on the garage), concrete patio and off-street parking! As you enter the front-tiled foyer, you will immediately appreciate a bygone era of quality and architecture. A very nice-sized living room is off your left and features an electric fireplace that is flanked by built-in bookcases. The formal dining room will be off your right from the foyer and has gleaming hardwood floors and direct access to the well-appointed kitchen. This area flows nicely for entertaining. Upstairs you will be greeted by all three bedrooms, with the primary bedroom having TWO walk-in closets with natural light and built-ins! The bath has been updated and offers a walk-in shower and a garden window perfect for moisture-loving plants. The third-floor attic space offers flex space to become a very cool children's playroom, office, music room, library, or non-conforming bedroom----which is how the sellers used it for decades! This home sits on three manicured city lots that also feature a two-car garage, plenty of additional concrete parking off of the alley, an enclosed front porch, new gas boiler in fall 2023, a water heater in 2022, shaker porch and meticulously maintained since 1963 by the same owner!!! DO NOT let this one slip through your fingers. Interest rates are becoming more enticing, and this could be the one! Call today for your private showing!
