Property Description

Find all the character of a classic Craftsman-style bungalow, thoughtfully updated throughout! Great care was taken to preserve this home’s original charm while adding modern features, including a kitchen with custom cabinetry, refinished hardwood floors, re-stuccoed exterior, new insulated windows, and beautiful Spanish tile flooring on the inviting front porch and enclosed sunroom. Additional improvements include a newer roof, deck, double-wide aggregate concrete driveway, and a 2-car garage. A large archway and abundant windows fill the gracious dining area and adjoining family room with natural light and warmth. Need main-floor bedrooms? This home offers two! The lower level, with its own private entrance, lives like a main level and features a bedroom with an adjoining full bath, a huge recreation area, and an office or extra room to fit your needs. Don’t miss the expansive .52-acre lot with double aggregate patios, an additional side parking pad perfect for an Airstream, boat, or extra vehicles, plus plenty of green space for outdoor enjoyment. In addition, this oversized lot offers potential to expand the home or build new, as there are many million dollar + homes in the area. Excellent access to all the excitement Downtown Kirkwood has to offer.
