730 S Sherman Street

Turnkey Dutch Colonial in West Wash Park with lovely, vintage details to seduce your heart; modern updates to satisfy your head. Enjoy the period details like the antique twist doorbell on the front door, high ceilings, substantial mouldings, and newel posts and banisters. The main floor flows beautifully with all of the essentials - elegant front living room, spacious dining room, modern kitchen with breakfast bar, mud room, laundry, powder bath, and rare main floor primary bedroom. Exposed brick walls on either side of the fireplace in the living room make this room cozy and warm. A few candles in the former firebox would bring a touch of magic to a cool evening. Host a lively dinner party in the dining room. The kitchen is perfectly situated for accessibility while hiding the chef's creative use of every pot in the kitchen! Relish the large primary suite with cathedral ceilings, large closet and built-ins, en-suite bath. A large tub and walk in shower with euro hinges and multiple heads suggests sumptuous self-care, while a separate toilet room and two sinks allows multiple people to share this space. Upstairs you'll find three additional bedrooms, all with charming original hardwood floors and architectural ceiling details. All have large closets. The full hall bath has two sinks to make morning and bed times a little less stressful. The basement was excavated under the mudroom and primary suite to create a retreat with higher ceilings than you would expect in a house of this age. The full bath and ample storage round out the interior space. The backyard is a private oasis. Plant gardens, enjoy the lingering warmth in the evenings, install a fire pit, grill a meal. The plantings are intentionally bee friendly and have successfully helped pollinate the owners' kitchen gardens. Of course there's a garage, but how much will you need a car with so many lovely places within walking distance? Wash Park, the restaurants on S. Broadway, Platt Park -- the list goes on.
