2109 27th Avenue S

Lovingly cared for by the same family since 1976! From the “Little Library” and stone bench that greets neighbors as they walk by the front pollinator gardens to the 2-car garage (with skylight) in the single access alley this home is a delight start to finish! The main floor features a two-room living room, a formal dining room, a den/office space that could be converted into a main floor bedroom, a woodburning stove, original stained glass, picture rail & a wall-to-wall built-in bookcase! You will appreciate the newly refinished hardwood floors. The kitchen has a center island and plenty of cabinets and countertops, stainless appliances including an induction cooktop! Upstairs you will find the three bedrooms (all with great headroom), a versatile loft space and half bathroom with vintage wallpaper! Best of both worlds with high efficiency water heat & mini split A/C on both levels. The 3-season porch overlooking the back gardens is a fantastic place to gather and relax. Perennials and raised beds dot the backyard. Built circa 1896, with the basement added in the 1920’s. Modest urban elegance with an interesting history in a vibrant neighborhood within blocks of Seward Co-Op, Franklin Terrace Off-leash Dog Park, Midtown Greenway, West River Parkway connected to the 51 mile Grand Round Scenic Byway trail system, Matthews Park, eclectic businesses & restaurants – including Northern Clay Center, Bench Press Letterpress, Habitat for Humanity Restore, SoberFish, Curry in a Hurry by Gandhi Mahal, Pizza Luce, Co-op Creamery, & the new all-women’s sports bar – A Bar of Their Own – and so many more!
