Large House with Extra Income Potential

Located on a quiet street in Belleville, this spacious 3-bedroom, 11/2-bath home offers large rooms, charming character, and plenty of flexible living space just a short distance from uptown. Inside, you'll find a large living room with 9-foot ceilings and a beautiful curved staircase leading to the second floor. The living room once featured pocket doors, which have been closed off but could easily be opened again to restore their original charm. The adjoining dining room includes a cozy gas fireplace and some original built-ins, adding warmth and character to the space. Just off the dining area is a comfortable family room connected to the kitchen, which features a table-height opening that keeps the spaces feeling open and connected. The eat-in kitchen is nicely sized and comes fully equipped with appliances, including the stove, refrigerator and dishwasher. The main floor also includes a bedroom that opens off the living room and features a large folding door. The downstairs bathroom doubles as the laundry room for convenient main-floor living. Washer and dryer are also included. Much of the home has hardwood floors hidden beneath the carpet, offering the potential to restore even more original charm. Upstairs you'll find two additional bedrooms, including a large primary bedroom with a spacious closet and a private half bath, along with a smaller second bedroom. A small concrete basement located off the family room provides a handy storage area. The home also offers excellent outdoor and bonus spaces. Along the entire front of the house is a welcoming sun porch, perfect for relaxing and extended use during cooler months thanks to a wall heater. Out back you'll find a fenced yard, a covered porch attached to the home, and both an attached garage off the kitchen and a detached garage with alley access. At the end of the driveway sits a separate cottage featuring a living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and enclosed porch area-an ideal setup for a short-term or long-term rental, guest house, or private office space. With vinyl siding, a newer roof, central heat and air, and its generous room sizes, this property offers comfort, versatility, and income potential all in one.
