About this home

You won't even know you are still in the city when you arrive home to this tranquil mid-century classic on a quiet wooded street in Gatewood. Up the entry stairs you will find great original style, stately rock fireplace, soaring ceilings and more. The open living, dining and kitchen opens to a spacious and private patio surrounded by rock-lined walls and lush vegetation. Lower level has a large rec room with 3/4 bath and huge walk-in storage closet. Great for home zooming and mess hiding.
