Step back in time and live the suburban dream in this adorable 1954 Mellenthin home on one of the best streets in the area. This was the model home and the crown jewel of the neighborhood when it was built and is unusual in that it is larger than most of the original homes, has a larger lot, and a rear facing garage. This home boasts 3 generous bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a cozy wood paneled den. There are two wood burning original fireplaces in the large living room and den. Lovingly maintained and sympathetically updated through the years it has had only 2 owners since new. Perched at the end of a quiet tree-lined street, this home is ready to move into. The gleaming original oak hardwood floors, central HVAC, remodeled bathrooms, granite counters, breakfast nook in the kitchen and separate full laundry room are some of the loving touches you will find. The oversized grassy and shady yard is a respite from the city. The separate garage would be a perfect setup for converting into an ADU with its own private yard (buyer to verify). The dovecot (birdhouse) on the roof, diamond paned windows, knotty pine wood, brick wood-burning fireplaces, glass block in the kitchen, and high-end craftsmanship are all hallmarks of these wonderful Mellenthin homes, and it's all there and preserved for the next discriminating buyer. The best homes rarely come on the market; lesser problematic properties are constantly changing hands. This wonderful home has only had 2 owners in 69 years.
