About this home
Single Family · Built 1952
Columbia charmer!!! This wonderful property offers the perfect combination of modern style and classic charm. Amazing 1950s 3 bedroom, 1.75 bath, with a bonus room. This home sits perfectly on a wide open corner lot, across from Lorraine Ellis Park in the heart of the Columbia neighborhood. The spacious living room features beautiful oak hardwood floors, a cozy fireplace with custom mantle, and plenty of natural light. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, with high-end appliances, ample storage, and travertine tile floors. Good sized bonus room that could serve as another bedroom or office. Great fenced yard with lots of garden space and a nice little patio in the back! Newer siding, paint, and covered entryway great for the northwest!
