Welcome to this Cherokee Gardens classic, offered for the first time and lovingly maintained by the same family for over 40 years. This home features four bedrooms, two and a half baths, and sits on nearly a quarter-acre lot.
The first floor features random-width pegged hardwood floors in the spacious living and dining rooms, creating warmth and character. The kitchen offers custom 42-inch cherry cabinets and a charming breakfast nook. From both the breakfast room and the cozy den off the dining room, you can step out onto the back porch, perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
The fenced backyard has long been a gardener's paradise and offers endless potential for outdoor enjoyment. Upstairs, you will find a generously sized primary suite with an adjoining bath, a rare feature for a 1941 traditional floor plan, along with three additional bedrooms and a full bath.
An attached garage comfortably fits an SUV or two smaller vehicles. Abundant storage is available in both the attic and basement, and the basement also includes an egress door with direct access to the backyard.
This is a rare opportunity to own a well-cared-for home full of charm and history, in one of the area's most beloved neighborhoods
