Are you looking for classic character with modern amenities? This stunning show stopper marries old Evansville charm to its beautiful bride; contemporary comfort, in the most perfect union of simple elegance. Nestled in the woods just north of Mesker Park, this respected and reimagined residence offers privacy in all of its wooded views. The bungalow is a quintessential Evansville home style, and can be found in nearly all parts of the city and county. But this bungalow is like none you've seen before! Setting back off Buchanan Rd, the large front porch sprawls the width of the home. Relaxing here is required. From the original 1935 12-pane door, you and your guests will be delighted by the refinished original hardwood floors. 5x5 windows give panoramic views of the woods and energize the space with light. Speaking of light, the attic dormer is now open to the floor below letting even more light in and creating the perfect space for a 72" remote controlled ceiling fan. From there, a previous dining room has been opened up and transformed into a modern kitchen every chef would enjoy. Soft-close drawers and cabinets are abundant, and floating oak shelves make displaying pottery or plants a decorating dream. The enormous window above the stainless farmhouse sized sink ushers the outside into the modern look and feel of the kitchen. Copious countertops abound and all of the brand-new appliances are included in the sale! But wait, there's another original door on special hinges that swing either direction. What's in there? The former kitchen was an afterthought, but now has purpose as both a scullery and laundry room. Another sink with another window make this an excellent prep station for your instapots, stand-mixers, air-fryers, and whatever else you don't want on display in your main kitchen. That room leads both to the unfinished but completely reinforced basement, as well as a 25 foot deck with handsome railing overlooking more woods! Back inside, the principal bedroom has large windows and the full bath has custom tile work matching the accent wall of the kitchen, new fixtures, new commode and vanity. Upstairs, 2 additional bedrooms enjoy new mini-split system for personal heating and cooling. A half bath saves a trip downstairs and is also completely new. In the walk-out basement, you'll notice steel support beams installed by Healthy Spaces and offering a transferable warranty. This house is now more solid than ever and is ready to be loved again.
