This craftsman has all the charm of an older home with modern amenities after being completely remodeled in 2009. Improvements (all city permits & done to code) include a brand new kitchen, new lifetime roof, open floor plan, all new windows and a custom basement. The upstairs has a designer kitchen with an eat-in area and a restaurant-style sink, dining room, living room with a wood-burning fireplace and gorgeous built-in bookshelves, a large bedroom with vaulted ceiling and sky light, a remodeled bathroom with bath tub. The custom basement has all cork floors, a great family/TV room, large bedroom with spacious closets, master bedroom with a large double closet, and modern bathroom equipped with a double shower, dual sink, heated floors and a large linen closet. The second upper bedroom can be used for a study and the home has original wood floors. The laundry room has a ceramic utility sink, shelving and drying area, and lots of space for storage. The double garage was updated in 2010 with an automatic door and a storage loft. The backyard has an 800 sq ft stamped concrete patio (30x13) and is completely fenced in. The home is located one mile from the downtown with its numerous restaurants and shops, one block from Memorial Hospital and three blocks from Memorial park and Prospect Lake (the city recreational area that includes a pool, fitness center, ice skating rink, two playgrounds, seasonal farmers' markets and many events throughout the year). Shooks Run trail, which runs throughout the city, is a short ten minute walk and includes many parks and open green areas great for walking, running or biking.
