About 1242 W 5th Ave
Lovely character in this 3-bed, 2-bath Whiteaker bungalow on a sublime and quiet stretch of 5th Ave. Happy neighbors adore living here, just ask. Polk Street doesn't allow east-bound traffic, so the street is peaceful and lush with mature City plantings, majestic oaks and low traffic. Great value with a brand-new roof, updated crawlspace with new sump, all-new interior paint. Gas fireplace in a darling and open living room/dining room. Original, shiny hardwood floors, updated and insulated windows, as well as period built-ins. Cute bathrooms include a redone clawfoot tub, and the third bedroom could whisper "studio" to the attentive listener. Very close to a plethora of wonderful restaurants, breweries and more. Will make some smiling individual(s) a wonderful home.
