Come see this lovely brick row home on a great block in the heart of Bella Vista. Enter the home into a welcoming foyer with tiled walls and flooring, and an original multi-light interior door surmounted by a fanlight transom. The foyer leads to an open living-dining area highlighted by original oak floors with walnut inlay, and the original wooden staircase and banister. Beyond the dining area is a recently renovated kitchen featuring a farmhouse style sink, white Shaker-style cabinets, quartz counters, open wood shelving, and stainless steel appliances. The window over the sink, the half-light rear door, and the transom window, bring in plenty of morning sunlight and ambient light throughout the day. The rear door leads to a small patio surrounded by Isaiah Zagar mosaics. Downstairs you will find a partially finished basement with exposed ceiling joists, finished walls, painted floors, and synthetic flooring perfect for a play area or gym. There is a laundry area with a washer and dryer and an enameled cast iron utility sink. On the second floor, you will find two bedrooms, and a hall bath with black and white ceramic tile and an original art deco style enameled cast iron tub surrounded by white subway tile. At the top of the steps to the third floor is a small deck overlooking the patio below. There are an additional two bedrooms on the 3rd floor, the smaller of which could someday be converted into a second bathroom to create a top floor owner's suite. The home is heated by a hot water radiator system and is cooled by a high velocity central air conditioning system. This property offers so much in the way of location, functionality, character, and value. It is within a few blocks of Palumbo Park (a great recreation and dog park), the Italian Market, The Asian markets on Washington Avenue, and the Whole Foods and Acme on South Street. There are amenities in every direction. This is a home that you don't want to miss.
