Property Description
This precious downtown oasis offers abundant outdoor living in Montford! Vaulted ceilings, an open floor plan, & plenty of natural light are not the only WOW factors. Positioned on a one-way street with minimal car traffic, enjoy the neighborhood from the idyllic covered front porch or through the many south & west facing windows in the living room. Entertain with privacy in the stunning sunroom & spacious back deck, while your dog roams the no-mow yard with picket fence (rare for Montford, but grandfathered in!). Off-street parking, ample storage, & a low-maintenance yard with mulched pathways & beds ready for your sun-loving plants are rare amenities. With a separate entrance & deck, the sunny studio apartment is perfect to host a guest or tenant (buyer to confirm). A block from downtown & the greenway, so close to groceries, popular eateries, craft cocktails, breweries, & parks. This little gem boasting big living within a caring Montford community is ready for you to call it home.
