About this home
Set on one of Midtown’s most beloved streets, this cottage-style home is full of charm, thoughtful updates, and a surprisingly spacious layout. From the street it appears quaint, but inside you’ll find a home designed for comfort, flexibility, and entertaining.
The main floor features a welcoming living room and dining room that open easily to one another, creating a natural flow for gatherings. Custom plantation shutters and original hardwood floors add warmth and character. The dining room connects to the kitchen, which has been carefully designed to maximize space. You’ll find an oversized built-in china cabinet stretching from floor to ceiling, ideal for storing dishes, linens, and more. The kitchen offers ample cabinets, a built-in oven and microwave, an inset cooktop, room for a cozy breakfast table, and a two-seat bar. A walk-in pantry—rare in homes of this style—adds even more function.
The primary bedroom is generously sized for a Midtown home and includes a spacious closet. Its ensuite bathroom is equally impressive, with a linen closet for extra storage and original black-and-white tile preserved beneath peel-and-stick flooring—ready to be uncovered by anyone wishing to highlight the home’s vintage charm. The second bedroom, currently used as a den, offers two closets and could easily flex as a guest space, home office, or reading room. A second full bathroom on the main level has been updated while thoughtfully preserving the original blush pink bathtub, adding a fun retro touch.
Upstairs, the fully finished attic provides exceptional versatility. With a full bathroom, it can function as a third bedroom with sitting area, a large game or media room, or a spacious home office. A generous walk-in storage area is perfect for holiday decorations, seasonal wardrobes, or can be converted into an oversized closet.
The backyard is a true highlight of this property. Mature plantings and established landscaping create a lush, private retreat. Whether you envision morning coffee surrounded by greenery, an afternoon gardening among the blooms, or evening gatherings with friends under the stars, this outdoor space offers both beauty and tranquility.
This Midtown gem blends classic cottage character with rare conveniences and flexible living spaces, making it a home you’ll enjoy for years to come.
