Great price for the Crestwood neighborhood! Lots of updates but retains many charming features from it's original debut in 1954. Kitchen features updated granite countertops and a one year old gas stove plus a good sized pantry for storage. The original Youngstown brand kitchen cabinets are still here and in excellent condition. Youngstown was considered the ultimate kitchen cabinets in the 1940's and 1950's with items like corner lazy susan storage components. Original hardwood floors have been refinished and look great. Newer windows keep this home quiet and low on utility bills. Covered patio out back and a large fenced yard is great for pets or children to run and play in. Good closet space for this size home. Sidewalks out front for exercise or a walkable distance to Publix, Planet Fitness, or restaurants. 5 minutes to Crestline Village. 10 minutes to UAB, the airport, or Lakeview and Avondale restaurants and bars. One step into house makes this one good for young or older.
