About 726 18th St

This historic home has so much to offer, from the glorious entryway and soaring ceilings, to the finished 3rd level, and all points in between. Cozy up in front of the fireplace, entertain in the huge addition, make an amazing meal in the recently renovated kitchen, or simply settle down with a book in the study. But that's just the Main Level. Wind your way up the beautiful decorative oak staircase to any one of 3 bedrooms, including a large primary bedroom with reading nook, and a huge renovated bathroom with a large glass shower, and wonderful soaking tub. A convenient laundry room caps off the second level. Continue up to the 3rd level and enjoy a huge multi-use area with fun views, and a large bathroom with a jet tub. Oh, there's more. The back deck feels like you're in a treehouse, and the back yard is large and includes a wonderful patio area perfect for an evening fire. Welcome Home.
