A small back porch overlooks the backyard garden. On the second floor, a bright and airy front bedroom features another decorative fireplace, while at the end of the hall, the back bedroom overlooks the garden and showcases a gorgeous built-in bureau with mirrors. A third bedroom, also suitable for a nursery or office, includes a connecting door to the back bedroom. The vintage-tiled bathroom (renovations needed) includes a tub. Spacious basement is perfect for a workshop or large storage area. Close proximity to Honeysuckle Provisions Cafe, Clark Park, and Fairmount Park, as well as several public transportation options.
