Overview

Description

Welcome to this charming three-bedroom, 1.5-bath home in popular Alger Heights. Features include a living room with real fireplace and an adjacent cozy sitting room and dining room with unique arched walk-throughs. 3 bedrooms and full bath upstairs, unfinished basement with laundry and 96 sq ft workshop. The backyard is truly a gem. No yard to maintain, just beautiful foliage, flowers and trees, an 8 X 12 wood patio, viewing trails, and a storage shed -- a rare piece of privacy. Though most will want some interior upgrades, the roof, furnace, AC and water heater are all less than 3 years old. Further, there's a new sewer sleeve preventing root damage (not uncommon in the neighborhood). All situated on a quiet street, walking distance to parks, school and Alger Square.
