Property Description

Built in 1918, this warm and inviting Craftsman bungalow blends historic architectural character with generous modern living spaces. Nestled beneath old-growth sycamores planted as part of the original neighborhood plat, the home welcomes you with a gracious covered front porch—truly made for greeting neighbors and enjoying the daily rhythm of the community. Inside, an informal entry highlights the classic saddle-back staircase with a prairie-style balustrade, illuminated by a charming 30-pane piano window. The formal living room features large front-facing windows and a striking original fireplace framed by 16-pane upper windows. Both the fireplace and stair rail showcase beautifully preserved serpentine tiger oak, a distinctive hallmark of the era. A formal dining room extends beyond. At the rear of the home, a quasi-open kitchen connects to a substantial 463-square-foot addition, which includes a powder bath and a bright, comfortable second living area. Custom floor-to-ceiling built-ins and large doors overlooking the backyard make this an ideal gathering space. Outside, a spacious raised deck allows for ample room to entertain, beyond which is a well-maintained and developed backyard. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms are served by two large bathrooms. The oversized primary suite offers two closets, a sitting area, and an en-suite bath. The southeast bedroom is paired with an attached study, with both rooms enhanced by custom interior louvered shutters and multiple original 12-over-1 wood windows. Two additional bedrooms and a shared hall bath complete the upper level. In total, the home offers more than 2,700 square feet of living space. Located in nationally recognized Heritage Hills, the home enjoys immediate access to Downtown, Midtown, Uptown, and Automobile Alley. The neighborhood features an active association, beautiful parks and green spaces, pedestrian-friendly sidewalks, the beloved Overholser Mansion, and abundant character and charm.
