Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Overlook, this charming English cottage feels like a hidden retreat.Set above the street for added privacy, the home is bathed in natural light, with south-facing living and dining rooms overlooking lush perennial gardens that bloom season after season. Inside, hardwood floors, crown molding, and a striking modern wood-burning stove create a warm and welcoming living space. The beautifully updated kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, built-in wine fridge, and French doors that open to the private backyard—making indoor and outdoor living effortless. The flexible floor plan offers a main-level bedroom that’s perfect as a home office, den, or guest room. Upstairs, you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms, each with its own heating and cooling plus peekaboo views of Forest Park and spectacular sunset skies. The private backyard is a true extension of the home, with a spacious patio, fire pit, mature landscaping —perfect for summer dinners, entertaining friends, or quiet evenings under the stars. The full basement provides wonderful flexibility, offering space for a family room, home office, workout area, or creative studio, along with laundry and abundant storage. Thoughtful updates throughout—including new wood window, newer furnace, updated electrical, and new water and sewer lines mean you can simply move in and enjoy. Located just moments from the shops, cafés, and restaurants along Killingsworth and Greeley, with easy bike and transit access to downtown and the Moda Center, this home also offers something harder to find—a true sense of community.
