Warning: this 103-year-old cottage in Kirkwood is about to steal your heart! The full-width covered front porch is like a big ol' hug from your favorite aunt - it's just begging you to sit back, relax, and watch the world go by! The sun-drenched living room is the perfect spot to throw those epic parties that'll be the talk of the town (and the 'gram). Through an archway your soon-to-be legendary dinner parties will commence and be the talk of the neighborhood. And don't even get me started on the galley kitchen - it may be small, but it's packing some serious punch with all those cabinets, counters, and fancy appliances! The breakfast area is like a bonus room (hello, home office or reading nook!) and the family room is basically the coziest spot on earth with its wall of windows, gas fireplace, and easy-peasy flooring. And let's not forget the half bath - because, let's be real, it's all about the little things in life. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms with hardwoods and neutral paint (because who doesn't love a good blank canvas?) and an updated guest bathroom. The level and fenced backyard is basically a doggone paradise (or a kiddo's dream come true), and the oversized two-car garage is like the cherry on top of this Kirkwood charm sundae. So, if you're tired of the same old boring homes, come on down to 727 and get ready to fall head over heels for this old-world charmer! The only thing missing here is YOU!!!
