Nestled on a lot that is nearly 10,000 sf, this 1940's charmer retains its original character, but has been upgraded for modern living. Wave to your neighbors from the front porch, enjoy wine and hors d'oeuvres at the butcher block countertops, savor a home-cooked meal in the custom dining booth or lounge under the stars on the expansive patio, with the firepit crackling nearby. Two main floor bedrooms are full of natural light that gleams on refinished hardwood floors, while a third bedroom, currently used as an art studio, doubles as a home office. Downstairs, the huge primary bedroom is large enough for a sitting room or yoga space, and adjoins a bright modern bathroom via a sliding barn door. Long-term guests will appreciate the coffee/wine bar downstairs, as well as an additional living area perfect for movie viewing, a spacious playroom, exercise area, or another home office. The super private backyard is the jewel of this property, with a fruit-bearing peach tree, vegetable garden beds, brick patio space, privacy screen and fencing, and thoughtful plantings throughout. Best of all, you're just blocks from the shops and dining at Highlands Square and Tennyson Street, Sloan's Lake Park, and Edgewater, with I-70 just a 5-minute drive down Sheridan.
