About This Home
As of September 2016Exceptional in every way, you will not want to miss out of the opportunity to own this 4 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath home on a striking double lot in desirable Alger Heights. The front entryway boasts a lovely coat closet and a stunning vintage crystal light fixture to light up the beautiful oak stairway. The home has stunning original hardwood floors that gleam with the impeccable care that the previous owner has provided. The large living room gets oodles of natural light with all of the windows and you will have plenty of space for arranging your furniture. The large formal dining room is stunning and opens into the renovated kitchen. You will have more cabinets then you know what to do with. There is also a convenient main floor half-bath and a spacious main floor bedroom. When you go up the beautiful stairs you will find three nicely sized bedrooms that also have stunning hardwood floors. Any of the rooms would make a wonderful master-bedroom and there is ample closet space to accommodate modern lifestyles. The full bath on the second floor is very large with stunning vintage tile and extra storage. The second floor also has a potential deck area that would be the perfect way to relax in the evening and gaze at the stars.
The expansive yard is two city lots! This stunning corner lot has the privacy that you crave with landscaping bushes surrounding the perimeter. There is a cozy seating area as well as mature trees. The detached garage will keep the snow off your car in the blustery days of winter.
Two parcel numbers for property. 41-18-08-106-030 for 948 Merrifield (vacant adjacent lot) and 41-18-08-106-029 for 944 Merrifield (lot with home).
