Just a short drive to the interstate and all the city's amenities. As a delightful surprise, if you know where to look, the downtown skyline peeks through from the front yard. Step inside, natural light comes through the floor-to-ceiling windows in each of the level’s front living rooms. The large kitchen is perfect for culinary adventures, and the cozy wood-burning fireplace invites quiet evenings at home. The walkout basement leads to a charming private patio, while the expansive deck off the kitchen provides a fantastic space for grilling and entertaining.
