Property Description
This 2 bedroom, 1 bath bungalow is serving up vintage character with a funky, modern twist, and every inch feels intentional. The gorgeous deep blue exterior sets the tone, while a welcoming front porch, complete with vintage stained glass, practically begs you to sit down and stay awhile.
Inside, natural light pours through the windows, highlighting spaces that are anything but ordinary. The kitchen is an absolute showstopper, featuring rich navy cabinetry, incredible ceramic tile, and locally made Boos Block butcher block countertops and shelving. (If you know, you KNOW.) The primary bedroom embraces its moody, maximalist side, proving that bedrooms don't have to be beige to be beautiful.
And then there's the feature we can barely contain ourselves about.
A. FREAKING. SECRET. DOOR.
That's right. A hidden door disguised as a bookcase leads to the bonus room and laundry area. Because apparently this house was designed for people who love whimsy, appreciate good design, and have always secretly wanted to live in a mystery novel.
But don't let all that personality distract you from the practical stuff. This bungalow has been lovingly updated and meticulously maintained, with HVAC replaced in 2024 and a full basement offering plenty of storage. Outside, a spacious, fully fenced backyard features beautiful mature trees, a private deck perfect for entertaining or escaping humanity, and a handy storage shed.
DID WE MENTION THE SECRET BOOKCASE DOOR?
This isn't a cookie-cutter renovation or another house dressed head to toe in builder beige. It's a thoughtfully updated, wonderfully eclectic space with character, comfort, and just the right amount of wow, all packed into a small but mighty 1204 square feet.
Some houses have character. This one has an entire personality.
