Looking for an adorable home with room to grow? Hoping to be close to parks, transportation, and restaurants? Wishing for a house where you can put your personal stamp on it? Well, guess what? You have found all these things at 1016 Highland Avenue! Bursting with curb appeal and a low maintenance perennial filled front yard, a large enclosed porch welcomes you and offers a charming place to visit with friends or read a book. The original hardwood floors and windows, natural wood trim, baseboards, and doors, and original hardware and archways, fill this home with charm and character. The formal living and separate dining room are terrific gathering places. The kitchen is spacious and bright with plenty of potential for a makeover to suit your tastes. A walk-in pantry could stay that way or be turned into a half bath. The kitchen opens up to a large bonus area with skylight that makes the perfect spot for a breakfast nook, den, play area, or office space overlooking the pretty backyard. Two nice sized bedrooms offer generous closet space. The full bath features the original wood medicine cabinet (so cute!) and updated tile in the shower area. Within one bedroom is a door that leads to stairs going up to the unfinished attic. Here's where there is room to grow! Finish the space as it is or dormer it out and really multiply the size of your home! Want more living space? Your wish comes true in the unfinished basement...it's just waiting for your ideas. The backyard is filled with more beautiful perennials and herbs. Your vehicles have a home, too, in the 2-car garage (built 2004). Much of the infrastructure of this home has been updated so you can play with the fun stuff...take a look: Roof (2013), A/C (2011), Furnace (2008), electrical, sump pump with back-up battery, basement windows, and radon mitigation system. If you can tear yourself away from this darling home, you're just blocks from Barrie Park, Irving Elementary, the Blue Line, and the Harrison Arts District which is filled with fabulous restaurants and boutique shops. Being sold "as is." Let your dreams unfold right here, right now, at 1016 Highland Avenue...Welcome Home!
