Welcome to Sweet Caroline, a vintage gem in the heart of the University District. Loved by the same family for 50+ years, this home wears its history with playful charm. Step inside and you’ll immediately feel Caroline’s signature touch, impeccable wallpaper, playful pops of pink and a warm sense of care throughout. Just one block from the U of Montana campus, this is the perfect spot for those who love to watch the world go by. The living room is pure sunshine, with south and east-facing windows streaming in light and framing a view of the iconic “M” on Mt. Sentinel. A gas stove brings cozy comfort. The dining nook and sweet-as-can-be kitchen, complete with iconic orange countertops, create a main living area that is nostalgic and inviting. Two bedrooms with beautiful hardwood floors and one bathroom sit on the main level. And then there’s the pantry/mudroom—a favorite spot (second only to the pink bedroom). With its cheery windows and storage space, it’s the perfect everyday landing zone. Downstairs you’ll find laundry, utilities, a second bathroom, and a generous bonus room that has the potential to become bedroom number three or a second living area. There is also a large storage room...once a place to store Caroline's canning abundance, as well as extensive additional storage. Outside, the private backyard is ready for a little love and imagination, an oasis in the making. With the river trail only two blocks away and campus steps from the door, it's truly in the middle of everything. Top it all off with a single-car garage and off-street parking, and Sweet Caroline is the whole, charming package.
