Lafayette Avenue by Donner Park sits at the heart of the historic district. With tree-lined sidewalks and a peaceful, woodsy feel, the neighborhood offers walking trails, tennis and pickleball courts, a playground, shelter house, and the community pool just steps away. This home has a bright, cottage-like warmth with 1,904 total square feet, plus a 20x8 covered front porch, a partially screened back porch, and a 14x12 deck overlooking a fully fenced backyard with a few mature shade trees. Inside, stairs lead to an unfinished attic, offering potential for future expansion. The main level features two bedrooms, including the primary bedroom with an en suite bathroom that includes the home's only tub/shower combination, along with a convenient half bath for guests. The kitchen has been updated with granite countertops, white cabinetry, tile backsplash, and a soft neutral palette that complements the character of the home. The lower level has tall ceilings and functions as a cozy rec room/TV space, workout area, and an office or flex room with its own exterior access. A third bedroom is located in the semi-finished basement, providing additional flexibility for guests, work-from-home needs, or hobbies. Recent updates include newer windows (2022), water heater (2023), water softener (2023), and new interior paint and light fixtures. If you're looking for a home that feels warm, settled, and deeply connected to its neighborhood, this one is worth seeing. This home was previously on the market with an accepted offer, but the sellers were unable to secure the right next home; they believe they have found the right one now.
