Built in 1938, this charming Magnolia home is ready for its next chapter. Lovingly cared for, maintained, and cherished for decades by the same owner. Timeless period details, including preserved hardwood floors and large picturesque windows in the living room. Coveted layout with three bedrooms and two baths on the main floor. The lower level has space for a bedroom, (or two) another bathroom, laundry, and a workshop! Located in a quiet cul de sac in a prime location, AND on a flat oversized lot, the possibilities are endless. The Western-facing backyard showcases rare plants, flowers, mature trees, and a nod to Chinese history with a tea house specially built by the owner. Meticulously tended to home now ready for your imagination.
