Welcome to this charming Lakeside cottage/bungalow with 1.5 car garage and finished second floor flex space! The cozy front porch is great for fall mornings and enjoying all of the beautiful plants. Inside you will find hardwood floors throughout starting with the sunny living room and dining area separated by a half wall feature that defines the space but allows the flow to stay open. The kitchen retains its original character while adding some modern updates like fresh paint, quartz countertops, and open shelving. Off of the kitchen is a bright utility room with newer stacked washer and dryer, a folding table and hanging bar, and floor to ceiling built in shelving. The original hardwood floors carry through the two bedrooms, both with ample closet space and plenty of sunlight. The updated bathroom is chic with quartz counters, tile floors, and a large linen closet. Accessible by an exterior staircase is a wonderful second floor flex space perfect for a home office, gym, or additional bedroom. This large space runs the width of the home and has brand new flooring and a new mini split HVAC system making the temperature comfortable all year long. The large, fully fenced backyard is great for fall fire pits and has two mature vegetable gardens...complete with seasonal pumpkins! The oversized 1.5 garage with power is a dream (25ft x 19ft)! There's even a loft area for additional storage. Parking is easy with two off street spots out front as well as two off alley spots in the back. Just 10 mins from downtown, 17 mins to Short Pump, and an easy walk/bike to all of the great shops and restaurants in Lakeside and Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens. Updates include: upstairs mini-split and flooring (2024), HVAC (2018), roof (2018), gas hot water heater and gas furnace for emergency back up heat (2018), updated windows throughout (date unknown).
