Little cottage (no), big surprises! Beautifully transformed inside and out, this Portage Lakes home pairs cottage charm with a fresh, designer-inspired look. Situated on three lots-the homesite plus two additional lots-this property offers extra outdoor space, a front driveway and additional rear parking. Relax on the covered front porch and enjoy a view of Portage Lakes, just a few properties away. Two main-floor bedrooms, including the primary, and a beautifully updated full bathroom provide convenient everyday living. Upstairs, a spacious third bedroom offers flexibility for a recreation room, hobbies or additional living space. The inviting living room features upscale luxury vinyl plank flooring and a wood-burning fireplace, while new carpeting adds comfort throughout the carpeted areas. The refreshed kitchen features new cabinetry, a handy pot rack above the sink and a projecting garden window perfect for plants. A spice rack and additional cabinets, shelving and storage along the basement stairway make good use of the space. Following tree damage during the March 2025 tornado, the home underwent extensive reconstruction. Updates include the roof, siding, exterior trim, gutters, downspouts, ceilings, most walls, paint, interior door slabs, molding, water heater and extensive electrical and plumbing work. The well has been capped, and the home is now connected to city water. There is a covered, screened-in sitting area off the walk out basement and also a storage area under the house along with a 12x20 shed has been added. The single stall garage under the house is extra deep. Fresh finishes, flexible space and extra land make this a cottage one you won't want to miss out on!
