About this home
Single Family · Built 1926 · Historic
Storybook curb appeal meets modern comfort in this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath Craftsman cottage. Tucked behind lush landscaping, the inviting front porch sets the tone for what's inside-hardwood floors throughout, a sun-filled living and dining room with custom window treatments, and a stylish kitchen with stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar, and chef's-height counters. The spacious primary bedroom offers great storage, while the second bedroom easily fits a queen bed and dresser. A full, unfinished basement provides endless potential, and the deep backyard is a true gardener's paradise. Perfectly located just blocks from downtown Highland Park, the train, and Rosewood Beach-this timeless cottage is the perfect blend of vintage soul and modern updates.
