Charm abounds in this beautifully updated & meticulously maintained cottage-style home in north Normal. Original hardwood flooring, arched doorways, built-ins, and glass doorknobs add to the character details. Amazingly, there are 2 gorgeous fireplaces-1 in the front living room and 1 in the family room. The family room is surrounded by windows. Set by the fireplace and watch the seasons change! The family room also opens onto a backyard deck. Kitchen updates include LVT flooring and appliances (2018). The basement is partially finished and has a cozy family room too! Other fun features-the laundry chute. Your soiled clothes go "bye-bye" in an instant. Make this cutie-pie home yours!! 1 car attached garage. HVAC 2018, appliances '18, bathroom '19.
