Beautiful rehab (with plans and permits), this cottage-style single-family home in Galewood offers 5 bedrooms, 2 baths, and generous spaces for everyday living. It's bigger than it looks from the outside! Featuring luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, many new windows, thick attic insulation and completely new electrical and copper plumbing. A functional and large eat-in kitchen features stone countertops, tile backsplash, white shaker style cabinets and a new stainless steel appliance package. An expansive dining room sets the scene for holiday gatherings, while a sunny main-level living room and a separate basement recreation room offer plenty of space to spread out. Newer HVAC and a newer hot water tank complete the package. Bonus gigantic attic space is ripe for possibility of expanding upwards someday too! Outside, the fenced yard offers a sun filled gardener's dream lot with room to cultivate, relax, and enjoy-all while preserving rear parking for two cars. There's a park at the end of the street and convenient access to the Brickyard and Riis Park's swimming pools, playgrounds, and acres of outdoor space. A fresh start with room to grow!
