About This Home

Quintessential Westside bungalow one block from the heart of Haywood Road amenities. While the location cannot be beat, it gets even better when you come inside of this well maintained piece of 1920's perfection. You'll find original hardwood floors washed in natural light from abundant windows throughout, classic millwork and door hardware, and a fireplace fitted with a tidy little wood stove (as-is).

Even better, the kitchen is now open to the dining and living rooms, the primary bedroom is expanded, the bathroom is updated, the front bedroom features a bonus space, and there is an updated natural gas furnace with crisp cool air conditioning. There is a big basement with super tall ceilings that is begging to become more living space - whether as an expansion, a separate living quarters, or both. Out back is a nicely shaded deck in the treetops overlooking a nearly flat backyard.

Life here is pretty grand! Start the day with baked goods or omelets just down the way, pop out for lunch at a dozen places within blocks, grab dinner at your favorite local brew pub or step it up to fine dining at Jargon, Neng Jr's or The Admiral. There are groceries and a natural food store, dozens of eateries, coffee shops, breweries, and cocktail lounges just a stone's throw from this sweet cottage.

Every Tuesday, just 400 feet from the front door, there is a tailgate market featuring local farms and makers. Live well and live smart with the charm of yesteryear well blended with modern comforts and convenience.
