Mid Century home just steps from park features recent updates including concrete stoop and walk, aluminum siding and thermal pane windows. This is part of an estate and previous owner was a master gardener leaving some lovely shrubs and perennials. This garden just needs tidying up and some tender loving care. Close up of the generous front stoop. Note the adorable tile address numbers! True to the 1950's Mid Century homes this one has hardwood floors throughout the main floor. Imagine the floors refinished and this huge living room freshly painted! We love the dining room adjacent to the living room especially when entertaining, more room to mingle and nibble! Through the doorway on the left, the kitchen is close at hand. Love how the blonde wood of the oak floors is repeated on the wall by the two china cabinets. Entry foyer is small but not boxed in so doesn't feel cramped at all! Another view of this spacious area. I was told the fireplace is blocked off with insulation so would need to inspected. Thus asked that no flame be put in this photo. This kitchen is just plain sweet! There is room for a small table and chairs or a butcher block as well. Love the garden window and generous counter space around the sink and cooktop. That garden window helps to make the kitchen feel so spacious. Window faces South so perfect for growing those fresh herbs. Imagine reaching over to snip some basil or thyme. You can see the relationship between the kitchen, hall and living room in this photo. The wall oven door lock is stuck so needs to be serviced. The freestanding cabinet is from IKEA and we felt it worked great there so left it. There is ceiling damage above this cabinet. While not wet currently it should be investigated during buyer's inspection. Love this bath featuring a big walk-in shower and gorgeous ceramic tile. Walk-in shower details! The largest of the three main floor bedrooms. Once again imagine the floors refinished and the wallpaper replaced with a fresh coat of paint. Another view of the main bedroom. Not in love with the curtains but imagine them replaced with a set of French doors. Middle sized bedroom. Yikes more wall paper to strip. Once you get the hang of it, it goes fast. Middle sized bedroom looks out to the backyard. Smallest bedroom. This floor has some staining. Huge basement partially finished room. Previous owner had a quilting and sewing area on the checkered floor and the far end was carpeted and a sitting area by the fireplace. What use to be the sitting area. The gas fireplace has a small leak. Centerpoint turned the gas off to this appliance. View from the opposite end of the basement. Notice the egress window for potential fourth bedroom. Cabinets and cubbies on the far end stored previous owner's fabric and craft supplies. Thought they could be useful to the buyer. Recently updated electrical, furnace 2017 and water heater 2011 according to the city inspection permits. Laundry and workshop. Sorry, no brand new front loading laundry pair here as much as we wish! That cylinder hanging on the wall is a central vacuum. The attachments are in the main hall closet. Left behind are some nice shelving units and a work bench for the buyer. No, a toilet in the basement is convenient but even this newer high efficiency one doesn't count as a bath in my book. However you are 1/3 closer to having at least a three quarter basement bath. Rear of the house faces East. Nice view of the glass block windows. Previous owner was a master gardener and the remnants of her creation are found about the yard like an archeological dig! The perimeter fencing is in rough shape but it is weathered Cedar and would think it could be repurposed in some way. I had the privilege of attending parties in this yard. It was so adorable. The upper deck held a screen house and the grilling was done under the pergola off the garage. Hopefully the decks can be salvaged as they are engineered decking. Pergola space is quite generous. The little potting shed has been invaded by vines. Hope the new buyer can resurrect it. You can get a better idea of how spacious this yard is. Oversized one stall garage needs some repair and painting.
