Description

This sun-filled classic stucco bungalow has the best of vintage charm and current updates. An enclosed tiled front porch opens into the living room that boasts its original wood work and art glass windows. All windows except for the art glass and kitchen windows have been replaced with tilt-in easy to clean double hung windows. Gleaming hardwood floors help to make the flow of the first floor seamless. The large open space off of the kitchen is currently being used as dining but would serve beautifully as a family room that looks out onto the professionally (McAdam Landscaping) landscaped backyard. The gorgeously remodeled, all stainless steel appliance, kitchen even has radiant floor heat. The formal dining room off of the living room is currently furnished as a cozy sitting room. The bath tub in the first floor updated bathroom was just re-glazed in the first week of February 2022. The new full bath in the remodelled basement has a spa-like feel to it. The entire HVAC system, both heating and cooling, were replaced in 2020. Quick laundry list of some recent updates...2021 much of house rewired, new circuit box, 2017 trenched basement floor for plumbing full bath and drainage, U.S. Waterproofing basement walls, tuckpoint inside and out basement walls, new gangway regraded concrete pathway along south side of building, back flow valve with over-flow, bluestone patio, closets, including pantry, Elfa Closet Systems, Epoxy basement flooring. The location can't be beat for walkability to all that downtown Forest Park has to offer as well being just blocks from Forest Park Pool/Park, ROOS Rec Center, and the Blue Line. Great access to I-290!
