Description

Built in 1925, this Kirkwood Craftsman bungalow has spent a century perfecting the art of the front porch. Cedar shake gables, chunky brick columns, and a deep covered porch set the scene, with plenty of room for a pair of rockers and your morning coffee. It's the kind of house that feels lived in the best way. Light pours through windows on two sides of the living room, catching the warm hardwoods and the painted brick fireplace with its classic mantel. Dinner guests drift easily from the living room to the dining table and into the kitchen, where crisp white shaker cabinets and subway tile keep things bright, and the window over the sink looks out to nothing but trees. Even laundry day is easier with its own room tucked just off the kitchen. At the end of the day, the primary bedroom feels like its own little retreat, filled with soft light from windows on two sides and an en-suite bath all its own. The second bedroom, overlooking the front porch, works just as well for guests as it does for a home office. Then there's the backyard. Evenings on the deck come with a canopy of mature shade trees and a view of a big fenced yard, framed by old stone walls that have clearly seen a lot of history and are ready for the next chapter. Picture raised garden beds, a fire pit, or a spot for the dog to roam. The powered outbuilding off the carport is ready to become the workshop, studio, or home gym you've been wanting, and the standing paved crawlspace handles the storage. The best part? The big projects are already done. The roof was replaced in 2023 with a 10-year warranty, the HVAC and furnace in 2019, and the water heater is about 2 years old. A hundred years of charm, minus the hundred-year-old to-do list.
