Cute cottage set back from street. Nicely landscaped lot with fenced yard and alley access lends to private setting. Covered front porch, wood floors and large open room gives this cozy, small home real character and feeling. Separated office/studio (incl in sq. ft) is nice addition for artist/writer, etc. House is solidly built with newer furnace and appliances. Owner occupied with small children - please give advance notice and shows well.
