This charming, extremely well kept Atwood Bungalow has tons of vintage character, boasts a large front porch, fenced in yard, huge closets, spacious kitchen, is blocks from Atwood & is incredibly convenient for bus and bike commuters.
You’ll love the home’s many original features, like the unpainted wide wood trim, doors + fixtures, hardwood floors, windows, wood siding & wood shake, to name a few. You’ll appreciate this home’s fantastic flow, its openness between the living & dining room and its natural light.
Love the outdoors? Your own urban oasis awaits. The landscaping was designed by Avant Gardening & Landscaping to focus on prairie/native plantings and to provide color throughout the season. There’s plenty of room to add a patio or deck, and if you wanted to kick it up a notch, you could install patio doors off of the dining room or kitchen.
This home is practically next door to one of my personal favorites (Sala Thai) as well as the Fair Oaks Diner and is just blocks from Atwood Avenue- chock full of restaurants, coffee shops, bars, boutiques & even weekly comedy nights at the Glass Nickel.
