This Mid-century home is like walking back in time! It has been well cared for since 1954 w/mostly original interior other than the updated LVT kitchen flooring. There are HW floors throughout, & the solid paneled walls & ceilings are in fantastic shape! The kitchen cabinets & countertops are also fully original & look amazing alongside the updated refrigerator & stove. The BA has updated fixtures, but the original tub, tile & lights complete the mid-century charm of this home. There is a wood-burning FP for those cold winter nights, & lots of windows w/ the original & functional Pella roll-up screens. The large back yard has a shed & another kenneled structure that could be used for a very large dog house or even a chicken coop. Near the intersection of University Ave & 65th St, the home is super convenient to the I-235 corridor, downtown, & western suburbs. New roof in fall 2019. This home has been operating as a short-term rental w/over $21,200 deposited income from Airbnb in 2020.
