Welcome to a wonderful neighborhood filled with timeless charm! Lovingly held by the original owners for more than 75 years, this special home retains its authentic mid-century character and timeless appeal. This home features an exceptionally flexible floor plan designed to accommodate a variety of lifestyles. The front bedroom is ideal for guests or a home office, while the oversized rear bedroom offers plenty of room for larger furniture, a desk or exercise equipment. Bedrooms three and four have been combined to create one spacious bedroom and could easily be converted back into two separate rooms. The inviting eat-in kitchen features custom bench seating and a large table—perfect for holiday meals, special occasions and everyday gatherings. Lots of counter and cabinet space, double oven and a large center island. The true difference-maker is the rare and spacious basement. Freshly painted, clean and ready to use, it offers outstanding possibilities for storage, a home gym, workshop, creative studio, game room or the ultimate man cave. Homes in this price range rarely offer this much additional usable space and flexibility. Lots of natural light due to the open floorplan. The backyard offers the perfect blend of grass for play and hardscape for outdoor seating and a barbecue. The covered patio creates an inviting setting for outdoor meals and gatherings with friends and family. Real ADU Potential.
