This beautiful 2-story historic brick home has been lovingly cared for and transformed into a unique property with the ultimate urban oasis in the backyard and tons of built-in storage. The interior features modern fixtures and original wood floors... through most of the house. The spacious dining room sports custom built-in cabinetry and open shelving, an unusual benefit in homes this age. The open-concept first floor flows into a living room and kitchen featuring a granite island and countertops and stainless steel appliances. A half-bath off the kitchen and a hallway with built-on storage for coats, bags, and pots and pans rounds off the first floor.

The second floor separates the private spaces from the public spaces, with a master bedroom (easily fitting a king-sized bed) with en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet, plus two extra bedrooms with an additional full bathroom. Beautiful architectural details like original molding, wood floors, and large windows (not original) add up to a charming and peaceful home.

Basement is spacious with laundry machines provided and a 7' basement ceiling, making it suitable for a home gym, home gardening area, or any number of additional uses, with a walk-out to the backyard.

The backyard currently shows the hard work the owners have invested since acquiring the home with the fruits of this past Spring starting to mature. Tomatoes, cucumbers, beets, carrots, and herbs are all starting to ripen, and the dahlias and sunflowers are starting to bloom. Fruits will produce until frost in October/November. Already passed is the season for blueberries, cherries, lilacs, peonies, and daffodils. Apples should mature in Fall. The property is covered with perennials (including edible ones) and watering is completely automated. In the very back is a fenced-in chicken yard, ready for your hens. Parking is on the street in front or on the back parking pad.

Monthly rent includes water, trash, and sewer. Tenant must take care of electricity, gas, and internet. Pets allowed with a $350 nonrefundable pet deposit; some restrictions on dog breed.
