Hottie in Highlands! Smart buy... Detached home, move in condition, nearly 1000 sf, BEST location & Under $700k!!! This charismatic 1920s brick Bungalow is full of personality! The showstopper? A GIGANTIC wraparound covered front porch that's destined to become your favorite spot for morning coffee, Friday happy hours, lazy Sunday afternoons, and impromptu dinner parties. Inside, the welcoming living room is anchored by built-ins and a decorative fireplace, creating a space that's equal parts cozy and timeless. Beachy woodgrain flooring flows throughout the main floor. The newer kitchen checks every box with stylish sage cabinetry, concrete counters, SS appliances including a 5-burner gas range + flexible lounge space with a built-in hutch. It easily serves as a breakfast nook, coffee bar, cozy reading corner or the perfect work-from-home setup. A sunny casual dining area opens directly onto the rear deck & yard. 2 generously sized bedrooms each accommodate a king-size bed and more, while the beautifully updated full bath strikes the perfect balance between vintage inspiration and modern convenience. Newer windows throughout and central air add everyday comfort, basement offers laundry, a utility sink and valuable bonus storage. Low-maintenance backyard is ready for whatever chapter comes next-keep the raised garden beds and grow your own tomatoes, herbs, and flowers, or create the ultimate "grill and chill" hangout with string lights and seating. And then there's the location. Sunday mornings at the Highlands Farmer's Market. Breakfast at Odell's Bagels. Margaritas at Taco Tequila Whiskey. An Orangetheory class before grabbing coffee. Boutique shopping along 32nd Avenue. Sloan's Lake is moments away when you're craving a walk, a paddleboard session, or sunset by the water. The house has all the good vibes. All that's missing is someone to move in, make it their own, and love it for years to come. Don't blink... this Highlands Square gem won't wait around!
