Cookie cutter? Absolutely not. We could start with the square footage and price, but why? Those don’t capture it. The trees and beautiful garden, cocooning and soothing. The sun pouring into the main room, serene. A neighborhood that is walkable to everything but almost no one knows exists. The house has been upgraded lovingly since 2001, preparing it for a majestic march through another century. You won’t even see much of the house from the street, but that’s on purpose. The trees have been grown to make the house its own little world. Step beneath the spreading arms of a blue spruce, like the doors of a secret garden. Inside, all is colorful and bright, with lustrous hardwood floors, brick accents and plenty of places for all your knickknacks. The enormous kitchen is 100% new and bursts with personality. Two bedrooms and a bath on the main level, with two rooms in the finished basement, one of which long used as a non-conforming fourth bedroom. The basement is also perfect for a small office, play area or storage. The upstairs is accessible from the main level, with a lockable interior door. Though stylistically different, it may be used as part of the main house or split off as a rental unit (can anyone say “defray the cost of a mortgage?”). With its own bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette and exterior entrance for a renter, it’s a retreat and filled with lots of sunshine, with an epic tonnage of storage space. Head toward the backyard and into your backyard escape. With more beautiful greenery, there’s a covered patio and another one out under the sun, perfect for a table and umbrella for your evening meals. The Whittier neighborhood is a thirty-minute walk from downtown/Union Station. RiNo is a fifteen-minute walk, and City Park just ten! Whittier is that neighborhood that we all want, and the house is the same. This quiet and humble little gem and its yard and trees need to go to a new and loving heart. Is that you? If so, welcome home.
