Property Description

Welcome to 2119 Chippewa Street, where historic charm and modern comfort come together in a picture-perfect city cottage—one that has even caught the eye of several home décor and style magazines. Perched gracefully above the street, the home greets you with a wrought-iron gate and a charming stairway that leads to a private courtyard hidden behind a wooden privacy gate. This serene outdoor space sets the tone before you even step inside. A covered side porch invites you through the entry and into the spacious living room, where tall ceilings, period woodwork, and a decorative fireplace create a warm and timeless gathering space. The main bedroom sits at the front of the home and offers generous space for multiple dressers, nightstands, and cabinetry. Upstairs, the second bedroom occupies the entire upper level. A cozy dormer window creates the perfect nook for a writing desk, reading chair, or artist’s easel—an inspiring retreat tucked beneath the roofline. The beautifully updated kitchen blends style and function with custom cabinetry, a center island, abundant lighting, and modern finishes. Just nearby, the bathroom offers convenient access for both residents and guests. The adjacent dining room is a standout space, rich with character thanks to exposed brick, a historic built-in cabinet, and an abundance of natural light pouring in through large windows and two elegant French doors with transoms. From here, a glass-enclosed mudroom with classic brick flooring leads outside to a private patio and enchanting “secret garden.” At the rear of the property, the two-car garage provides rare convenience for city living. Additional amenities include central heating and air conditioning, a 200-amp electrical panel, main-floor laundry, insulated windows, and all-electric appliances—thoughtful upgrades that ensure modern comfort while preserving the home’s historic appeal. This one-of-a-kind cottage offers charm, character, and livability in equal measure. Don’t miss your chance to make it yours. Clear Occupancy Inspection already obtained.
