Property Description


0.23 Acres Lot
Built in 1945
For Sale - Active
Units n/a

Stunning Mid-City Cottage on oversized lot with garage! Meticulously maintained, this one is a charmer! The beautifully renovated kitchen with new stainless appliances and granite counters opens to flex space on either side that could be a breakfast area, formal dining, office or den. The Primary Suite features built-ins and a private bath with designer touches. Entertaining? Plenty of space with the large formal living room and the oversized back yard with ample shade is perfect for get-togethers. If Mid-City is where you want to be, schedule your viewing of this charmer today. Sellers are relocating and are highly motivated. Would also make a great rental or Air BNB!
