Property Description
Charming, Thoughtful, and Yes—Cozy! Welcome to this lovingly renovated 2 bed, 1.5 bath home on one of the friendliest blocks in the city! Full disclosure: it’s not huge. But every inch has been carefully designed and put to good use (I’m the agent and also the former owner, so this one’s close to my heart). Our family of four lived here happily—proof that small can still be mighty when done right. On the first floor, you’ve got the kitchen and dining area, the full bath, and a spot we used as our living room (yes, there was a sofa there!). There's also a big linen closet and some smart built-in storage throughout. That said, the finished basement makes an awesome living room, den, or teen hangout—whatever you need. Upstairs is the main bedroom and a second room with a built-in loft bed and desk—great for a kid’s room, guest room, or home office. Not your thing? We're happy to remove the built-ins before closing. The finished basement has a newer half bath (small but totally usable—I'm 6'1" and never bumped my head), plus laundry, storage, and mechanicals in the front half. Out back, there’s a screened-in covered patio with a ceiling fan for summer and a heat lamp for cooler nights, plus a brick patio and fenced-in yard behind that—plenty of space for outdoor living. This home has been lovingly maintained by a licensed general contractor (me!), and it’s move-in ready. The 1500 block of Montrose is a gem—quiet, tight-knit, and walkable to Sprouts, Target, Starbucks, Chipotle, Wine & Spirits, public transit, playgrounds, and the beloved E.M. Stanton Elementary just a block away. Bonus: It rents easily (last leased at $2,250/month), so it could also be a great investment if you ever decide to upsize in the future. Come see what small-but-mighty looks like in person!
