523 E Mills Ave

This charming bungalow oozes with character. Abundant thermal pane casement windows add so much natural light, but also unique are the wrap-around corner windows in most rooms, literally bringing the outdoors inside. Guests are welcome onto a covered porch and into a small foyer with porthole window and an original paneled main entry door. Step into living/dining room, open and spacious with a fireplace (originally wood burning) now with gas logs. French doors lead to a covered patio and a fenced backyard. The kitchen was thoughtfully renovated back in the early 2000s by Kitchen's by Teipen, utilizing top quality finishes including Grabill cabinetry, a gas Thermador range, granite counter tops, ceramic floors and back splash. The bathroom was also fully renovated at approximately the same time. In removing the wall-to-wall carpeting, original hardwood floors were discovered. While they would benefit from refinishing, they add so much character and warmth throughout the house. The back entry conveniently brings you directly to the kitchen. An unexpected feature is an open stairway to the full basement. The inviting open stairway leads to expanded living areas, a spacious room with a wood-burning fireplace, an office, laundry facilities (front-load washer dryer included) and unfinished utility and storage rooms. The property is an estate. Recent electrical updates including a new bathroom exhaust fan/light . The home also features a new overhead garage door and door opener with keyless entry.
