Urban living in Historic Monte Vista! This grand one-story, well into it's second century and listed in the National Register of Historic Places, is one of the oldest structures in the neighborhood. An expansive wrap-around front porch with swing lets you enjoy the vibrancy of this thriving historic and entertainment district. Mere blocks from all the popular dining spots that make Monte Vista a "destination!" The home is full of towering seven foot windows, interior glass doors and high transoms. The living room has a window-lined "bump out," offering cozy seating and a view of the tree-lined avenue. A unique double fireplace lends ambience to both the living and formal dining areas. The kitchen is large, bright and open, overlooking a New Orleans-styled bricked courtyard. (Kitchen IS plumbed for gas cooking!) Secondary bath is updated with separate shower and Japanese soaking tub. And if all of that is not enough, there is a charming three-room apartment above the detached two-car garage. Opening to a spacious deck and perched in the tree canopy, this "treehouse" features a living area, bedroom, bathroom, and bright, cheery kitchen lined with windows. Tremendous long or short-term rental opportunities. Two car garage plus extra off street parking in the oak-lined driveway. EASY BIKE RIDE TO THE PEARL!
