About this home
On a corner lot just a few blocks from the Alaska Junction this sweet Craftsman style home offers many possibilities! Charming front porch entry with glass pane front door and sidelights leads to bright, welcoming living room featuring freshly refinished hardwoods, picture tile fireplace and space for dining. Country kitchen has been completely renovated (2025) and has a spacious dining nook with built-in glass front cabinets. Both bedrooms on this level can accommodate a queen size bed and both have beautiful light and pleasant outlooks. The full bath was completely renovated in 2024 with tile and new fixtures. The basement level feels huge. It has good ceiling height a third bedroom with adjacent 3/4 bath and a laundry area. The remainder is unfinished and could easily be additional living space or developed into a second living unit. The garage with alley access is also quite large and could possibly be converted to a two car. Additional upgrades include a new roof and gutter guards in 2025, updated electrical, fresh interior and exterior paint. Location is excellent with a great neighborhood, easy access to Junction shopping and restaurants, transit only a block away and a quick C line commute.
