Property Description
This charming home, built around 1910, has been thoughtfully renovated to blend historic character with modern conveniences. The property features a two-story addition, a screened-in back porch, and a covered front porch, all situated in the desirable Old SW neighborhood of Columbia.
Upon entering, you're greeted by a welcoming foyer with updated oak flooring and the home's original boot bench with a hinged lid for extra storage. The spacious living room, just off the foyer, boasts refinished original oak floors, a large picture window, built-in bookcases, and a decorative fireplace with a custom mantel.
The open flow from the living room into the formal dining room makes this home perfect for entertaining. The dining room features bay windows, refinished oak floors, and exquisite trim around the windows and doorway, along with thick baseboards that highlight the home's historic charm.
Toward the back of the house, you'll find a stunning kitchen and family room, designed for modern living. The kitchen is equipped with Marmoleum flooring and top-of-the-line GE stainless steel appliances, including a 5-burner gas cooktop with a stainless vent hood, an island with a prep sink and butcher block top, Silestone solid surface counters, and a builtin microwave and convection wall oven. The plentiful cabinetry includes pull-out drawers,
rotating corner cabinets, and decorative glass-fronted cupboards. The adjacent family room offers plenty of natural light and opens to a screened-in porch that overlooks a deep, flat, fenced backyardideal for outdoor relaxation. A convenient main-level laundry room features a utility sink and stackable washer/dryer.
The original staircase, updated with modern stair lighting, leads to the second level, where you'll find four bedrooms with refinished original pine flooring. The large primary suite offers ample space for both a bedroom and a sitting area and includes two walk-in closets. The ensuite bath features dual vanities, a jetted tub, and a separate shower for ultimate relaxation. A spacious hall bath serves the additional bedrooms on this level.
Other features include pocket doors throughout the home, fiber internet, attic access via a bedroom closet, and an upgraded sewer line (replaced in 2017 as part of a City Improvement Project). The front garden is planted with Missouri native species and irrigated by downspouts. The home also includes a Tuff outdoor shed for additional storage.
Recent upgrades by the current owners include a 9.49 kW solar array system (installed in 2022), a permanent stabilized floor framing system (2022), a Steibel Eltron tankless water heater (2022), and a new 8x12 greenhouse (2023). The property is just a short walk from the MKT Trail, offering easy access to outdoor recreation.
