$359,900
For the history buff in all of us, this storybook Tudor revival style stone cottage was originally built in 1930 as the first home for the newlywed couple, John and Elsie Russell. In a well-documented reclamation and restoration project in 2011, Bloomington Restorations, Inc. lovingly restored this home to honor its original craftsmanship while offering modern comforts and style, utilizing high quality materials and beautiful attention to details. Sitting on a level .65-acre parcel, this 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath cottage is showcased with abundant windows, rich hardwood floors and solid wood doors and trim throughout. Entering through the charming arched front door, you are greeted by a timeless and inviting open circular floor plan with the living and dining rooms flowing easily together. The kitchen was updated in 2020 with custom cabinets, granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances. The main level bedroom can be used as a home office or a guest space. Upstairs, you’ll find the primary suite with the main bedroom highlighted by a vaulted and exposed beam ceiling and an adjacent half bath. There is also a comfortable loft sitting area perfect for reading or relaxing. In the lower level, you’ll find finished flexible space that can be used for storage, a workout area, or an additional family room. There is plenty to enjoy outside as well, with a entertainment sized stone patio/firepit area, mature trees and open space that would be perfect for gardening. A whole house generator, as well as all of the appliances are included in the sale. There is a site plan attached that has been approved for a possible expansion on the back of the home as well as a potential detached garage. Exluded from sale: coat rack by the front door. Showings begin Friday, April 4th.
Take State Road 45 east just past Russell Road. House will be on the left.
