About 1225 17th Ave S

This very unique, historic gem located in the hip, downtown community of Southside will keep you and guests entertained for years. The indoor charm is only surpassed by the incredible outdoor living! This is a fully fenced in oasis that feels like you are secluded in the mountains, including one of the best views you'll find of downtown from the top porch. The fully independent studio apartment (sold furnished) gives you options like a private MIL suite or passive STR income, and the immaculate landscaping and outdoor kitchen will make you never want to leave. The spacious 3/2 main house has tons of updates, and custom lighting is artistically woven inside and out the entire home. There's almost too much value to capture in a description, but the last thing we'll add is the garage parking places. You literally won't find another one of these downtown. Schedule your showing today!
