About this House

Cue the lights—this Chester Park charmer takes center stage! Thoughtfully decorated with a playful flair, this expertly decorated 2 bedroom, 2 bath home is full of personality, warmth, and spaces that truly perform. From the moment you arrive, the classic front porch sets the tone—an inviting place to sip your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day. Step inside and you’ll find cozy yet stylish living areas with rich color, character details, and just the right amount of drama. The kitchen steals the spotlight with its refreshed look, featuring new appliances and a creative blend of finishes that feel both functional and fun. Two bedrooms and a bath share the upper level while the lower level has another bath, laundry, a workshop area, a den/storage area and a clean, walk-out space. Set on a rare double lot, the exterior is just as fun! A charming picket fence frames the yard, offering room to garden or simply enjoy the open space. The one-car garage adds convenience, while subtle peeks of Lake Superior remind you just how special this location truly is.
