Charming Brick Cottage in North Downtown. Originally built in 1939 for Ms. Bernice Davis when Davis Avenue was still a cattle farm this enchanting North Downtown brick home radiates warmth and character. Nestled on a generous, private lot filled with lush plantings, flowering shrubs and inviting outdoor spaces, the property is a true gardener’s delight. A detached studio amidst the beautifully landscaped yard offers the ideal space for a home office or art studio. Inside, natural light pours through abundant windows and thoughtfully placed skylights illuminating every corner of the home. The interior blends vintage charm with modern updates, featuring original architectural details, cozy nooks and both wood-burning and gas log fireplaces. The layout flows effortlessly from room to room creating a welcoming and functional space. Recent upgrades include restored walls, a new roof, renovated kitchen, refreshed bathrooms, updated lighting, interior and exterior paint and updated electrical systems.
