Located in the heart of St. Elmo, this beautifully renovated home reflects the care and intention of owners who know how a home should feel, not just how it should look. The screened-in front porch invites slow mornings and quiet evenings, perfect for rocking chairs, a cup of coffee, and fresh air. Inside, the living room is filled with charm and character, featuring wide trim, wood floors, tall windows, and a decorative brick fireplace with its original refurbished white mantle. Natural light flows easily from room to room, adding warmth and ease to the space. A separate dining room offers another decorative fireplace, a built-in china cabinet, and plenty of room to gather. The kitchen balances classic and unique with white cabinetry and a stained glass window, a detail rarely preserved in renovated homes and one that adds real personality. Both bedrooms feel cozy and inviting, with the primary bedroom featuring its own decorative fireplace mantle. The bathroom includes a walk-in shower with attractive tilework, and a dedicated laundry room adds everyday convenience. Out back, a deck overlooks a private, low-maintenance yard with space for a patio table, lounge chairs, a firepit, garden, or play area. A storage shed and off-street parking round out the outdoor space. Previously operated as a successful Airbnb, this home has been thoughtfully maintained with both comfort and functionality in mind.
