Adorable Craftsman style cottage in the Waveland Heights neighborhood. If you are looking for charm, character and location, this is your home! You will feel at home the minute you walk through the front door into the living room with original woodwork & fireplace, and through the French Doors that lead to the cozy sunroom. This home lives larger than you may think. Updated full bath and two bedrooms on the main level, with a very functional kitchen with gas range. The lower level is finished with a family room and bonus room currently used as a workout space, as well as immaculate laundry/utility room with folding area and cabinets. It would be very easy to add an additional bath and convert the bonus room to a 3rd bedroom with the addition of an egress window. Amazing landscaping from front to back. Fenced yard with large storage shed and additional “she shed”, new composite deck. This is the perfect spot to relax, entertain and enjoy the evenings.
