A romantic Cape Cod style Cottage in the highly desired Marengo area, this 2 bedroom, 1 bath home is cozy, filled with vintage charm, and includes a yard for play, entertaining, or gardening. Enter the Living Room through a covered landing to find a full wall of custom built-in cabinetry, hardwood floors and period style windows that help fill the space with filtered light. The Vintage Retro kitchen was refreshed in 2011 & 2021, and includes a Vintage stove, recessed lighting, generous storage space, and a romantic breakfast room with corner built-in cabinets. Adjacent to the kitchen is a laundry room with washer/dryer included, and direct access to outside. The 2 bedrooms at the back of the home have hardwood floors and updated dual paned windows. The cozy bathroom has vintage tile surrounding the tub/shower and extended counter space. A dining sized screened-in patio runs almost the full length of the back of the house, providing a generous space for sitting or serving meals to extended family and friends. The comfortably sized backyard is the perfect setting for a playground, an outdoor game zone, or perhaps an English garden! There is also a 1 car garage, currently fitted with custom storage cabinetry, and also includes a remote controlled garage door. Central Air and heat, installed in 2019, plus a convenient EV Charger, bring this cottage into the 21st Century! Garfield Park, prized by local residents, is just 1 block away, with its tennis courts, looped path, playground and rose garden. Convenient to so much, including all the cherished shops and legendary restaurant
