About This Home
As of November 2020Welcome to the heart of the city! 1611 W 8th Street is a charming Victorian style townhome, that offers the convenience of city life, and opportunity! This home is in close proximity to hospitals, schools, shopping, restaurants, and more! The architectural detail is beautiful, which creates great curb appeal. You can enjoy city life from the covered front porch (freshly painted and lattice privacy added 9/2020). You will fall in love the minute you enter the front door! There is beautiful hardwood in the open living room and dining area, original built in cabinets with glass doors separating the living and dining space, and an oak tread staircase (wood staircase refinished 2018). The kitchen has been completely remodeled with NEW custom built cabinetry, NEW subway tile back-splash, NEW butcher block counter tops, NEW flooring, NEW dishwasher, and a NEW microwave! The whole home (minus the one back bedroom) has NEW cordless blinds! Downstairs you will find the unfinished basement with a brand NEW washer and dryer! Upstairs consists of three ample sized bedrooms, and a full bathroom. The primary bedroom is a great size with two closets, and a beautiful bay window that fills the upstairs with natural light. The bathroom has been completely remodeled as well! In 2018 sellers added a NEW subway tiled shower, NEW shower head, NEW porcelain tile flooring, NEW floating vanity, and a NEW accent wall with linen storage shelving. The decor/theme throughout the home is so well throughout, and modern/rustic. The sellers also re-sealed the roof in September 2020 with a fibered aluminum reflective roof coating, and updated the front yard with a retaining wall and landscaping. If you are looking for a great price in the city, then this one is for you! Schedule your tour now, and be in for the holidays!
