Property Description

Step into a space that just feels right — where charm greets you at the door, light pours through the windows, and every corner whispers “welcome home.” This 1.5-story gem offers more than meets the eye. The main level features a cozy yet functional layout with hardwood floors, a full bath, and two bedrooms. Upstairs, you’ll find a finished attic — the kind of bonus space that becomes what you need it to be: a peaceful primary suite, creative studio, or tucked-away home office. The basement adds even more flexibility, with a non-conforming room and a second living space perfect for movie nights, game days, or guests. Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard ready for summer evenings or playtime, and a deep driveway with space for up to four vehicles. No garage — but plenty of off-street parking convenience. Located near Waveland and Windsor Heights, you’re just minutes from Cowles Montessori, St. Theresa, parks, trails, Merle Hay shopping, and quick access to I-235. Whether you’re buying your first home or simply looking for one with heart, this place invites you to slow down, dream big, and make it yours.
