Charming house on a great block! Nestled into a great neighborhood with mature trees and a private
fenced back yard with oversized two-car garage yet easily walkable to all at the nightlife, shopping and
fun that the hip West Seventh area has to offer. Public transportation and airport are easily accessible. Larger than it looks, there are 2 bedrooms upstairs including a third room for den, nursery or office and study nook. Two more sunny bedrooms are on the main level. Kitchen and bath are updated and the lower level with high ceilings offers potential for lots more finished space. This is a gem!
