About This Home

As of April 2019

(SHOWINGS START 2/21) - This cute cottage has great charm, PARKING for FOUR cars with main level access when you enter through the alley. Located on a dead-end close to Woodland Park, the pedestrian bridge to Edgewood blvd and just a few blocks to the elementary school you will love the location. The well maintained home is in fantastic shape, with 3 true bedrooms (no walkthrus) this house lays out well and the original bath is very cool- It has a great backyard and fantastic sun-room on the front. This house is perfect the way it is but has tons of potential for expansion. The garage is perfect for storage. Roof and Water Heater are 3 yrs old
