Property Description

Only at 506 Mallard can you sing with the birds - this is my beautiful house, this is my beautiful garden, this is my beautiful street, this is my beautiful life. Speckled with character, this craftsman bungalow is a 1920's specimen set in the perfect private garden oasis on a tree lined street in Cleveland Holloway. Inside, soaring 10' beadboard ceilings and old heart pine floors complemented by thoughtful recent updates lend easy living. Outside, a covered porch/deck combo overlooks cultivated spaces with 70 native plant species, raised beds, a fire pit lined with a beautiful sedge walk, and a hidden garden space where you can plop that picnic table and enjoy the indoor/outdoor secret oasis you've always dreamed of, right in the middle of the city. Entertainment here is a dream - the bop inside and out is so easy, the garden is just an extension of the home. Get your green thumb on with some easy maintenance, the plants are already established! It's a hop, skip and jump downtown to all your favorite spots downtown and you're so close, you won't even get sweaty. The library is just up the block!
