Description

Curb appeal! Here is a chance to own an iconic home in South Superior that has some of the best curb appeal around! The main floor has a huge living room that is open to the kitchen, entry and dining room. The kitchen has been tastefully updated and is in great shape. It has beautiful hardwood cabinets that are covered in a nice laminated countertops. The appliances are newer and are all stainless steel. There is a refrigerator, stove, microwave and a dishwasher too! There is a back hall that has access to the laundry room, closet, bathroom, kitchen and basement. The 3/4 main floor bathroom keeps your company out of the upper level and also provides a second shower for those days when you need it. The flooring on the main level is a beautiful vinyl plank flooring that matches for the entire main level. This home features 3 bedrooms on the upper level and one full bathroom. The bedrooms upstairs all have closets and 2 of the rooms have nice hardwood flooring. The upper level bathroom is huge and offers so much! It has a large corner jetted tub with a shower. There is a huge vanity that has plenty of space for you to set things down while getting ready. There is a toilet, and believe it or not, but there is a sauna too! One of the most unique features this bathroom has is a private porch! The basement is partial but is about 1/2 the house in size. It is in great shape and has tons of light, updated mechanicals, brand new water heater in 2025, and a brand new furnace in 2025, 200 amp circuit breakers in 2013, shelving and tons of space for storage. Outside you will find the best known wrap-around porch in the entire city. There is a nice 50' yard and a 20x26' 2 car detached garage too! Everyone knows this home that has driven by it and now you can own it!
