Property Description
She's a BRICK, HOUSE! This mighty, mighty American Foursquare brings all the solid charm they just don't build anymore. The huge enclosed front porch welcomes you to this stately home featuring four bedrooms (one on the main floor), two full baths, modern upgrades along with plenty of vintage accents. On the main level the kitchen features updated cabinets, lots of natural light, and a window seat with extra storage. The main floor bedroom and full bath are a hard to find convenience. Upstairs you'll find three good-sized bedrooms, solid antique wood doors, some cool wide-plank wood floors under carpet, nice antique trim and a large full bath with claw-foot tub and room for a second-floor laundry room. Make sure you find the walk-up attic with plenty of room for storage, exercise equipment or hobbies through an upstairs nondescript door. Out back there's a big, partially fenced back yard, and garage. All this, and it's just a quick walk to downtown- plus the best BBQ around, a fantastic cup of coffee and one of the area's most popular ice cream shops. You'll love the quaint rural, small-town vibe of Hinckley, but it's a great location for an easy commute to the burbs and city! It's a fact, this home is stacked, with charm, function, space and amenities. This brick beauty is sure to please-Take a look-it'll be the one, the only one you need to see!
