6851 S Gove Street Overview

Visits:
0

Simplifying your space is proven to simplify your life! Prior to 'bigger is better' becoming standard mindset, homes were designed for simplicity and this modest house exemplifies this original philosophy. Delightfully appointed with the essentials and nothing grandiose, from the hardwood floors in the bedrooms to the newly installed, natural wood-tone LVP throughout, the original charm has been graciously rejuvenated, keeping the integrity intact. Exposed brick chimney, authentic wood doors accessorized with vintage, crystal doorknobs & kitchen cabinets adorning original hardware, some things really do stand the test of time. Just painted, the interior/exterior colors are complimented with new interior/exterior lighting. A newer composition roof, vinyl windows (a mix of casement, grid & double hung) new exterior doors and recent installation of gas fireplace make this a sensible investment for downsizing, 1st time buyer, rental property or AirBnB. Set below an idyllic oak tree much like a scene from a park, this corner lot offers open space, alley access, detached garage parking & driveway parking. Most neighbors throughout this tightknit community have resided here for decades with Manitou Park Elementary being the heart of the neighborhood, to which are all priceless extras not easily found these days. This specific home has been owned by one owner for 53 years! Bonus: home has been pre-inspected & repairs completed.
