Large corner lot with beautiful mature trees

Built from 1958 architect plans with old brick and antique columns, this one-story brick ranch at 703 W 29th Street sits on a 0.45-acre corner lot shaded by mature trees — with a full-length front porch and a side porch off the family room.

Inside, 2,049 square feet is laid out in real, defined rooms. The living room has a decorative fireplace and pocket doors that open into the formal dining room. The paneled family room has its own fireplace and built-in shelving, and the breakfast area sits off the kitchen.

Both bedrooms are oversized, and each has its own bath and walk-in closet. The laundry is a true room with a door, and the hallway holds three more oversized closets. Storage keeps going outside: a fenced back yard with a storage shed, two greenhouses, raised beds, and a covered patio.

The maintenance is current — fresh paint inside and out in 2026, an architectural-shingle roof about five years old, gas central heat and air around four and a half years old, city water and sewer. No HOA.
