About This Property
Classic 1925 Craftsman in the heart of Normal Heights. Two blocks to Adams Avenue’s restaurants, live music, and street fairs. Single story with original character fully intact. A covered front porch with tapered columns opens to refinished oak floors, coved ceilings, picture rail, and tall original panel doors throughout. The living room centers on a brick fireplace with working gas insert, flanked by built-in bookcases and cabinetry, and flows into a separate formal dining room. The kitchen features quartz counters, marble herringbone backsplash, an apron-front double sink with drainboard and floor-to-ceiling pantry cabinetry and plumbed for gas cooking. Two bedrooms, both with closets, and a period bath with original octagon-and-dot tile floor, subway wainscot, and pedestal sink. A rear-entry butler’s pantry off the kitchen adds more quartz, more storage, and direct access to the yard, with a full-height hall linen closet as well — rare storage depth for a home of this era. Outside, a timber pergola over a paver patio creates a true outdoor living and dining space beneath a mature crape myrtle, with raised planting beds and full privacy fencing. Drought-tolerant landscaping front and back means no irrigation and no mowing. A gated side driveway runs the length of the lot for secure off-street parking. Section 1 termite clearance completed. Garage is AS IS. Move-in ready. Zoned R3 Restricted Multiple.
