Property Description

Some homes simply have a way of slowing life down. This charming brick bungalow blends beautifully preserved character with thoughtful, design-forward updates all within walking distance of the MCT Trails and downtown Edwardsville's farmers market, restaurants and festivals. Step inside to warm wood floors, substantial millwork and sunlit rooms that feel collected rather than recreated. The living room centers around a painted brick fireplace framed by built-in bookcases, while the dining room makes a statement with its coffered ceiling and paneled walls. The updated kitchen features white cabinetry, quartz counters, a farmhouse sink, stainless appliances, gas range and butcher-block island. Just beyond, a wallpapered breakfast nook pairs a built-in banquette with original cabinetry to create an irresistible spot for morning coffee. An enclosed sunroom offers another light-filled place to relax throughout the seasons. Two spacious main-level bedrooms accompany a beautifully updated bath with classic checkerboard flooring, paneled walls and brass accents. Upstairs, a surprisingly expansive finished retreat with skylights offers room to sleep, work or unwind, along with an updated bath featuring a playful striped tile shower. Outside, fragrant climbing roses line the deep fenced yard, creating an enchanting backdrop for play, gardening and evenings on the deck. A detached garage completes this special home, rich in personality & perfectly positioned for enjoying Edwardsville.
