About This Home
Terrific expansion bungalow in the heart of Como Park, just blocks from the lake. Plenty of updates over the years, including the dormer addition in 2000, roof in 2024, Renewal by Andersen windows on main floor, remodeled Kitchen & Baths, refinished hardwood floors, and fresh paint throughout. Other highlights include a spacious 3-season porch, 2-car garage, formal dining room and an eat-in kitchen. The next owner will benefit from the reconstruction project currently underway, which will improve street pavement, curb and gutter, street lighting, sidewalks, underground utilities (including water mains and storm sewers). This is a great home in a great neighborhood!
