Property Description
IN TOWN OASIS Charming 1929 storybook bungalow packed with original character and thoughtful modern updates. Just two blocks to downtown Geneva's restaurants, shops, and the train, this home gives you the feel of an urban lifestyle while having a quiet, lovely oasis to return to. This is an unbeatable location for commuters and anyone who loves convenient living. The unusual open floorplan accomodates a modern living aesthetic and has an indoor outdoor flow that allows you to relax either in the hosue or outdoors in peace and quiet. The newer double paned windows bring in light on all sides highlighting the original woodwork and gleaming floors. There are hardwood floors on both the first and second levels, fully refinished in 2023. The light-filled living room features a wood-burning fireplace, while the separate dining room opens through classic double doors to an extensive paver patio - true indoor-outdoor living. The updated kitchen offers 42" cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and a butcher block island. Upstairs, three bedrooms all offer oversized closets, plus a secret attic bonus room with potential for future expansion or perhaps a new primary suite. The partially finished basement adds extra living space and storage, complete with a half bath. Charming period details are everywhere - a working mail slot, laundry chute, and French doors - gives the home genuine storybook charm. Outside, enjoy a large, private, fully fenced backyard and an oversized 2.5-car detached garage with a turn around driveway for convenience. Recent updates for total peace of mind: New furnace (2025) Refinished original hardwood floors, 1st & 2nd floor (2023) Sewer line replacement - lifetime, fully transferable warranty (2023) Freshly painted first floor (2023) Newer hot water heater, Pella windows throughout, and sump pump So much character - so many updates - so cozy and truly move-in ready!
