Property Description
Circa 1929 this charming and sprawling mid-century style home sits on a nearly half acre lot in the wonderful Hampden Heights neighborhood.

There is an amazing deck that extends along most of the home granting upper-level access to the outdoors as well as steps down to the back yard. You enter the home through a set of beautiful double doors into a large foyer. You will immediately notice the abundance of natural light that permeates throughout the house via the many large windows. To your left is a welcoming living room/dining room with high ceilings, open beams, large windows and wood flooring. The galley retro kitchen sits between the living room and the dining/family room. There are plenty of pretty cabinets and drawers, lots of counter space, a stainless steel double sink and a stainless gas stove. Seriously, a fun place to cook! The adjoining sitting room has a built-in wet bar that is tucked behind folding doors. This area works well for dining and game playing. You will love the tile floors.
