Some houses are simply places to live. And then there are the houses everyone notices--the ones that make you slow down just a little as you pass by. This darling blue cottage on Hartford Street is that house. Set back from the road beneath a canopy of mature shade trees, this 876-square-foot 2 bedroom, one bathroom cottage feels like a little retreat tucked into its own park-like half acre. The charming front porch welcomes you in, where you'll find two bedrooms, one beautifully renovated bath, and a warm, inviting interior refreshed with new flooring, fresh paint, updated lighting and new appliances. The large kitchen is a standout, with abundant cabinetry and plenty of room to gather, cook and create. A spacious laundry room and cheerful mudroom add practical living space, while the mudroom offers just the right spot for a home office. But step outside and the story gets even better. A long, wide concrete drive leads to an oversized 20' x 36' detached garage complete with a separate storage room and an abundance of space for a workshop, hobby room or serious storage. There's also a 12' x 20' storage building for all the extras. A back walkway connects the garage and rear porch, creating an easy outdoor living and entertaining area with planty of room to expand the home in the future. And the location? Walk to the highly regarded Bolivar Schools main campus to the north, or walk south to grab coffee, stroll to nearby shopping, and enjoy the convenience of being close to the heart of town. This is the cute blue cottage everyone sees on the way to school--the one that looks like it belongs on a postcard. 876 square feet of charm, perfectly situated on a remarkable half-acre lot. Come see why this little house is so easy to love.
