We could start with a list of updates. .. exterior painted in 2016, paved drive, 22 new windows, new kitchen, glorious new bath, updated electric & plumbing, NEST, RING. .. but that wouldn't even begin to touch the bright tenor of this happy home in Lakeside where 21st-century updates beautifully complement its old-world charm. If you're interested in small-home living then don't miss this chance at a home built with the integrity of yesteryear and the efficiency of today's technology. The efficient kitchen has ample storage and was recently renovated with beautiful components and finishes, the bath is a dream with custom cabinetry & tile and upper end fixtures. There's also a handy coat room at the back entrance which is where you'd most likely enter & exit your home on a regular basis. The Sun porch-Dining Room-Living Room floor plan is friendly whether you like to entertain or just relax in privacy at the end of your day. Downstairs offers storage and workshop space if you need, and the back yard bumps up to the Lakewalk. Gitchi Gummi Beach is just a few blocks farther down London Rd so you'll have every opportunity to get outside and enjoy your city. Walk to the "Lakeside Shops", maybe even bike to work if you're lucky! So convenient to the beautiful scenic North Shore area surrounding Lake Superior, yet just minutes to Downtown Duluth. Call soon if you'd like to see it.
