This PEACEFUL BRICK COTTAGE on Hammond's historic Baring Parkway is ARTISTICALLY DESIGNED and pretty as a picture! As soon as you pull up, the thoughtfully designed landscape will CHARM you. If it's not too cold, stop for a rest on the tree swing! The COVERED FRONT PORCH welcomes you as you step into the cute foyer with whitewashed wood flooring. The large living room has a GAS FIREPLACE to keep you cozy on those winter evenings. The FORMAL DINING ROOM is a gorgeous place to entertain with two walls of windows, handpainted mural, stained glass light fixtures and built in shelving. The UPDATED KITCHEN features chalk painted white cabinets, QUARTZ countertops, brick backsplash, NEWER APPLIANCES and accent lighting. Two bedrooms share an updated full bath. The master bedroom has exposed brick walls and morning light from three large windows. The second bedroom/office offers an accent wall with wainscoting and view of the backyard greenery. The SHOWSTOPPER of the main level is the HUGE SUNROOM, with VAULTED wood ceilings, WET BAR, and 360-degree views of your own backyard retreat. From the kitchen, a few steps will take you to the COVERED WALKWAY to the garage, protecting you from all weather. Continue down to the FULL BASEMENT, where a light filled laundry space includes newer washer and dryer, large utility sink and cabinetry. Over 900 square feet of FINISHED LIVING SPACE with epoxy flooring could suit many needs, and additional storage is offered as well. NEW CENTRAL AIR unit 2 years ago. The FULLY FENCED backyard is stunning in all seasons with well maintained landscaping, wood DECK WITH PERGOLA, INGROUND SPRINKLER SYSTEM and landscape lighting. If that's not enough outdoor space for you, head right across the street to the OPEN PARKWAY for a long dog walk or pickup football or baseball game. Hammond's HOMEBOUND down payment assistance program and COLLEGE BOUND scholarship program for teens make this a no-brainer. DON'T MISS THIS ONE!
