Property Description
This mid-century bungalow was lovingly and carefully renovated by the owners in 2021 to keep the charm and feel of the 1940s but with added modern amenities. The house offers a spacious open-floor concept, joining the living room, kitchen, and dining area. The kitchen was designed with a chef in mind - ample counter space and storage, ideal for entertaining. The house boasts three large bedrooms and two spacious bathrooms. The true primary suite has 9-foot ceilings, french doors, a vaulted ceiling in the bathroom and a walk-in closet. The closet space throughout the house is unusual for a home of this vintage. The entire property is fenced in, making it perfect for a family with small children or dogs. Out the back door is a deck with a large screened-in porch. The front yard has multiple flower beds and a bed for a vegetable garden. There is also a detached garage with plenty of space for storage. Cherrywood is a charming, family-friendly neighborhood where parents still walk their children to the local elementary school (Maplewood). The home is walking distance to a number of bars, restaurants, and coffee shops, as well as the university. It's a 7-minute drive from downtown and 20 minutes from the airport. In 2021, the house was taken down to the studs. Everything is new except the original hardwood floors and a few vintage details. This includes new siding, insulation, drywall, custom Pella windows, roof and shingles, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, paint, stainless steel appliances, sinks/toilets/showers, tile floor, and interior and exterior doors. During renovations, the owners added special details throughout, including wooden windows, shiplap ceilings in the main room, a gas fireplace with custom tile work, and built-in book shelves. They also retained a built-in china cabinet and an antique telephone platform in the hallway, both of which were original to the home. The house also features a laundry room with a sliding pocket door.
