Located 3/4 of a mile east of Monticello's downtown district, this quaint 1930’s cottage offers 3BR and 2BA with over 1600 sqft. This property has a nice large backyard with a huge shed which is partially set up for a workshop, perfect for DIY enthusiasts. There are several sitting vignettes outdoors, outside of the kitchen area, perfect for the al fresco dining alternative, off the rear of the home, and a private patio off the owner's suite. The touches from a bygone era like the five panel real wood doors, bay window and built in China hutch in the dining room add character and warmth to the home. The updates performed in 2020, from paint and flooring to appliances and HVAC, ensure that the home maintains its charm while offering modern comfort and convenience. The heart of the home is tucked off the back of the house, with the iconic kitchen picture window over the sink to daydream or keep an eye on whoever is in the backyard. In addition to the numerous cabinets, there is a walk in pantry space at the end of the galley kitchen. The living room is substantial in size, anchored by the aesthetic of the fireplace (capped). The layout, with the laundry room centrally located, is practical and efficient and this laundry area is large enough to create a double purpose for the room, or just utilize it for bonus storage. The owners suite is ample in size with lots of natural light, a smaller closet for linens, etc. and a full size walk-in closet and spacious master bath with a tiled shower with dual benches and shower heads. Double sink vanity with and extra cabinetry tower. The master has its own private french door to a little patio space, great for stargazing before bed. Overall, this cottage combines vintage charm with modern updates, creating a cozy and inviting place to call home.
