Incredible opportunity to live in the heart of the city! This precious property is very well maintained, it truly feels like new. It is very inviting, cozy, and with a wonderful floor plan where all areas feel bright and spacious. You are first welcomed by a very clean and nicely landscaped front yard, easy to maintain but with enough space for those with a green thumb. As you come into the house you enter the main living area with an open living room, dining, and kitchen; all very clean and with lots of natural light. The upstairs boasts three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a game room. You can also enjoy outdoors in a large and very nicely decked patio. The property is all fully fenced, so it is safe for pets and little ones to play outdoors. If you like to walk, you'll love it here! you can walk to restaurants, bars, shops, and parks. By driving you are just a few minutes away from Downtown, the Medical Center, the Museum District, and a huge selection of entertainment. Never flooded.
