Location! b Location! Adorable cottage with a fenced in yard close to downtown, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment! This bungalow style cottage features 2 bedrooms, each with a sealed, non working fireplace, and 1 bathroom. Upon entering the front door, you see the spacious open living/dining area. The 2 bedrooms are on the right. Dont forget to look up in front of the 2nd bedroom, or you will miss one of the most unique features of the home! There is a fully functional loft hidden above the den! I was told that it was actually used as a bedroom by a prior owner! There is an electrical outlet and a ceiling light in there as well. The kitchen features a small island for more space. The bathroom was remodeled less than 10 years ago and features a jetted tub, a separate shower, and built in shelving. The fenced backyard offers a great place to relax or entertain. Parking is at the back of the house on Glenhaven Ave.
