About this House

Steeped in classic 1920s character and positioned steps from the pulse of REO Town, 218 E. Elm Street delivers urban walkability paired with total peace of mind. Skip the weekend maintenance list - the big-ticket items are already checked off with a brand-new roof, water heater, freshly upgraded deck, and clear, sunlit backyard ready for evening gatherings. Inside, sunlit spaces showcase authentic craftsman details, from original woodwork to distinct picture-frame hardwood floors in the formal dining room. The main level offers ultimate flexibility: use the main-floor bedroom as a sun-drenched home office or creative studio right next to the main-floor half bath. Step through the kitchen's glass sliders to your private backyard retreat, now opened up with freshly cleared tree canopy to maximize natural afternoon light. Upstairs, two expansive hardwood-floored bedrooms share a full bath, while the clean, freshly painted basement provides endless room for a home gym, workshop, or storage. Stroll to your favorite Blue Owl Coffee, boutiques, Sleepwalker Spirits & Ale and all your ReoTown favorites, or jump right onto the River Trail for an easy commute downtown. Classic soul, modern updates, and an unbeatable location - welcome to your next chapter on Elm Street.
