Must see this adorable move-in ready bungalow with 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom with gorgeous hardwood floors throughout most of the home, private driveway for off street parking and brick paver patio located in the Historic Converse Heights neighborhood nestled in the heart of downtown Spartanburg close to the upcoming Fifth Third Park baseball field, shopping, dining, the hospital system and doctor offices. The home is within walking distance to Happy Hollow, the neighborhood park! You will fall in the love with the spacious front porch with plenty of room for a swing and additional seating. If guests are not able to go up the stairs, they can use the drive to come in the back with NO STAIRS. As you enter the home you notice the high ceilings (9+) and historic fireplaces throughout the home. The living room boasts a wall of built-in bookshelves for lots of storage, plantation shutters to show off the NEWER windows throughout the home (replaced within the last 5-7 years, all were replaced but laundry window) and opens to the formal dining room. The dining room is HUGE, has two windows that allow for ample natural light with plantation shutters and spacious closest for more storage. Down the hall is a blue bedroom with historic fireplace, and the closet has been renovated to be a walk-in! There is another pink bedroom that also flaunts the historic fireplace and large closet. The full bathroom was renovated several years ago to add more function and better flow. The kitchen and offers plenty of counter space, cabinetry and island for meal prep and entertaining. The appliances which include the microwave, smooth top stove and are only a couple of years old. From the kitchen is a walk-in laundry room with more storage. And off of the kitchen is a porch (the back porch could become the new laundry room and then the current laundry could become an amazing butler’s pantry). The porch opens to the brick paver patio. A lattice privacy screen has been added and the yard is fenced and offers lots of mature foliage. The outside of the house was painted around 10 years ago, the roof is replaced around 15 years ago and two new sump pumps were added in 2024. Converse Heights is known for its beautiful historic homes that showcase character and charm, its desirable downtown location, and friendly community. It is also located in the award-winning school district 7 that offers the newly built Spartanburg High School. Must see to appreciate all the charm and character this home has to offer its new buyer!
