This picture-perfect cottage nestled in the heart of Mount Washington offers a blend of comfort and convenience. It features a spacious, flat backyard, off-street parking for two vehicles, and the potential for installing an EV charger, making it an ideal choice for modern living. The home underwent a complete gut renovation and rebuild seven years ago. Every inch of space has been thoughtfully and creatively arranged to maximize utility and comfort. The intelligent layout ensures that each area serves a functional purpose, contributing to the overall appeal of the property. Thanks to the generous lot size and the orientation of the house, there is significant potential for future expansion. While the property is perfect as a one-bedroom home, it also includes an additional study or office on the second floor which can accommodate a small bed or futon for overnight guests, should you want to use it a backup bedroom, making it perfect for anyone seeking the simplicity of “small house” living. Climate control is provided by two mini-split units—one centrally located on the first floor and another at the top of the stairs on the second floor. This system has proven effective for the past two homeowners, ensuring comfort throughout the year. For the price of a condo, this cottage offers a large yard and the freedom of no condo fees. It is truly a unique opportunity.
