2502 Erskine $219,000

If you love South Bend and it's history, you'll appreciate Erskine Boulevard in the Studebaker Place neighborhood; an area known for it's gorgeous homes, where no two are alike. This attractive 1920's home sets on a large corner lot surrounded by other beautiful homes. And while it has been updated with new flooring, fresh paint, updated kitchen and baths, you'll still feel that charm of an older home. The off street parking offers a one car garage and carport that leads you to a large, open patio perfect for relaxing in the sun or entertaining with a cookout. Enter through the side door to a small landing with quick access to your half bath. The kitchen is bright with white cabinets, a dual sink with a large window to the side for plenty of natural light, all new appliances include a stainless steel refrigerator, dishwasher, a built in oven and a cooktop. The white backsplash and white/grey marble designed countertops tie in the neutral colors of this kitchen perfectly. Plenty of space in the kitchen for an eating area with a view. For more formal dining, you have a gorgeous room available through the double glass doors. Don't need formal dining? This room would be amazing for a getaway in your own home. It's warm from the sun and would make a great reading area filled with plants. The living room is huge at just over 21' x 18'! Could easily divide for living space and dining. Has a large picture window for a great view of the beautiful, mature trees in the neighborhood. The fireplace room with walls of windows seems like it was designed for the "after dinner retreat" area for coffee and conversations. What a great spot! The charming staircase leads you to the bedrooms and an updated full bath where everything is very neutral. As is true for a lot of older homes, this was used as a 3 bedroom with 2 of the bedrooms being connected. If you don't need 3 bedrooms, just imagine the walk in closet you could have here! And if the 1900+ SF isn't enough for you, the lower level is finished as one large room with all new carpet. Don't miss out on this one!
