About this House

This well-built, single-owner home in the desirable University area was thoughtfully designed with exceptional attention to detail and has been meticulously maintained. Ideally located just one block from the base of Mount Sentinel and its popular hiking trails, and only a few blocks from the University Golf Course, the home offers both convenience and access to outdoor recreation.
Offering 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, the home sits on a spacious lot in a quiet neighborhood. Upon entry, you’re welcomed by original hardwood floors that have been recently refinished and extend throughout the home. The main level features a generous primary bedroom with a large bathroom complete with a classic clawfoot tub, along with a walk-in closet providing ample storage. A second spacious bedroom is also located on the main floor, and large windows throughout the home fill the space with abundant natural light. The open-concept kitchen, living, and dining areas are ideal for gathering and entertaining, highlighted by a gas fireplace. Interior access leads to the double attached garage, laundry room, pantry/storage closet, and the lower level.
Downstairs, you’ll find a full bathroom and an additional bedroom with egress windows and a large walk-in closet. The basement also offers excellent potential for future expansion, with multiple egress windows already in place.

Exterior features include underground sprinklers, mature landscaping in both the front and backyard, alley access to the double attached garage, and a fully fenced yard. A covered deck and private entryway create a perfect space to relax and enjoy the outdoors.

This exceptional home offers quality craftsmanship, functionality, convenience, and comfort in an unbeatable location.

    "The neighborhood is very expensive to live it. Cost of living is high and very little provision for low income families. There’s also frequent crime in the area with poor traffic system and poor traffic markings or directions."

    "The area epitomizes beauty, friendliness, access to the trails, the river, and mountains. The University provides a great backdrop and is essentially a gigantic park, but it also means some extra pedestrian and vehicle traffic on school days. Unparalleled access to Mount Sentinel and the Clark Fork. Exceptional, mature trees and wide boulevards. There are some rentals in the area (expected near the U) but most homes are sufficiently valuable that rental costs are high enough to keep the renters respectful of the property and therefore neighborhood. An amazing area."
