About This Home
As of October 2021Looking for just that right blend of functional space, but with a fun opportunity to add your own personal flair? Look no further than 768 N Croskey! This 2-bed, 1-bath home with TWO outdoor spaces is ideally located on a quiet residential block just moments from all the culture and activity the Art Museum area has to offer! Come inside past the custom stained-glass sidelight, and you'll instantly notice the gorgeous original wood-burning fireplace/mantle. The larger open floor plan provides ample space to define a living room AND dining room en route to the kitchen. This vintage kitchen is fully functional but can also be the perfect project to make the home your own! It conveniently leads out to an English-feeling brick patio, spacious enough to grill, entertain, or simply kick back with a book under the lilac tree! A practical storage shed is also affixed to the back patio, for additional bike or tool storage. Back inside past the coat closet, you'll ascend the stylish spiral stairs- naturally illuminated by the large skylight! Here, you'll find the ever-coveted upstairs washer/dryer, a sundrenched full bathroom with tub, and two nice-sized bedrooms. The primary bedroom features green views from the tree out front, ceiling fan and dual closets. The back room makes a perfect second bedroom, office, or den... With another set of sliding glass doors drenching this room in sunlight- it's the perfect setting for your own private deck! The unfinished basement is ideal for storage, and is even outfitted with a large cedar closet for your more delicate items. This owner has updated the downstairs to recessed lighting, and recently fully replaced the roof and skylight PLUS the entire HVAC system. Leaving only fun projects for the next lucky owner... Including the ability to revert the stairs back to a straight stairwell! That lucky person could be you- but you better move fast, because this one WON'T last long!
