300 Calkins Ave SE

Gorgeous, classic 100+ year home. Nothing about this home says rental as it is a family home and being rented while family is away doing doctoral work. Beautiful brick 2.5 bath, 4 bedroom (3 on second floor, 1 in basement) home for rent beginning December 2023. Incredible walkable/bus-able location! 4 houses away from #6 bus and #5 is about a 1 minute walk from your door. Both take you downtown and the Six gets you to Woodland Mall and 28th street. 1 mile from downtown. 1.5 blocks from both Cherry St. Business District and Wealthy St. Business District. 5-10 minute walk to Farmers Market/Fulton St. Business District and Eastown. Many of the best restaurants and breweries in the city (plus many and other lovely businesses) are within a 10 minute walk. Enclosed huge 3 season front sun-room/porch. Oversized working pocket door between dining and living room allows for more privacy when wanting less of an open-concept design and more of an intimate or formal meal. 3 Classic craftsman stained-glass windows Large walk-in Coatroom with craftsman wall paper.
