This endearing Cape Cod is located in the Near West and nestled within a coveted enclave just steps away from Mary Munford Elementary School. The home retains its charm and character of yesteryear while being improved over the years with modern updates. A few of the original features include hardwood floors, moldings/trim, a brick fireplace, and 9-foot ceilings. The Living Room is spacious and has built-in bookshelves, a wood-burning fireplace, and crown molding. The formal dining room is conveniently located between the Living Room and Kitchen. The current owner renovated the second level to perfection adding skylights, bamboo flooring, and a mini-split (for heating and cooling). This space has exposed brick and would make a sizable Primary Bedroom, a huge home office, or a playroom/den. The rear bedroom has a half bath and is flooded with natural light. The gardens are filled with numerous pollinators attracting a variety of bees! The adorable rear storage shed is about a year old. Enjoy your mornings or evenings on the covered front porch relaxing or catching up with the neighbors. Graveled off-street driveway. Warm gas radiant heat on the main level (used as secondary heat). Fenced rear yard with patio and established plantings. The roof and heat pump (1st floor) were replaced approximately one year ago. The water heater, washer and dryer were replaced in 2017.
