It's a sweetheart's delight! If Whimsy manifested in a house, she would reside here! Charm and character abound in this 1927 joy and light-filled home. High ceilings and original hardwood floors pair nicely with the updated bathroom and the one-of-a-kind, custom “butterfly kitchen.” Cozy up to the vented gas fireplace in the spacious living room, or sip tea outside on the front and back patios. Plenty of room for a king-sized bed in both bedrooms. Large attic and dry basement offer ample storage. Original chimney was completely restored and, per the seller, will be “the last thing standing in Montford.” Elevated on the ridge with easy access from Houston Place, there's parking for two in the rear driveway. No need to buy flowers, as the yard is on the verge of a gorgeous explosion with established perennials and herbs. MULTIPLE OFFERS RECIEVED-HIGHEST AND BEST SUNDAY 2/19 AT 5PM

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
