Property Description

This sweet 1925 bungalow is adorable as it is, but could become an absolute jewel box with some TLC and fine tuning. Sitting happily on a leafy, quiet street, it is an excellent alternative to condo living and a great investment. Inside it’s cozy, with a nice layout. The living room, dining room and kitchen have a graceful flow, and the light filtered through the trees is inviting and serene. A fireplace anchors the living room and the large windows frame the pretty palm tree in front. The dining room has windows on both sides that open it up, and the kitchen has a vintage feel with a big built-in booth for a breakfast nook. The laundry/mudroom can access the yard outside, just big enough for a potager or handy herb garden. Down the hall is a full bath, some built-in cabinetry and a bedroom that looks out onto a cascade of plants. The location couldn't be better: close to both the Piedmont Ave shops and the Grand Lake shops, this house has a Walkscore of 92.
