The main level features a comfortable living room, a spacious kitchen, and a dedicated dining area. The living room boasts beautiful oak hardwood floors, currently protected by an attractive laminate overlay, offering versatility and easy maintenance.Exposed oak floors accentuate the cozy main-floor bedroom that floods with natural light. An updated bathroom, featuring a lovely tiled tub/shower surround, completes this level. Ascend to the inspiring upstairs, formerly the studio of a renowned Missoula artist. This large, open, and airy space is a true highlight, boasting lofty high ceilings, multiple skylights, and an abundance of windows that flood the room with natural light. This versatile area is ideal as a creative art studio, easily convertible into a magnificent primary bedroom suite, or adaptable to whatever your imagination desires.

Practical amenities include ample storage space in the laundry room and a clever closet under the staircase. Additionally, there's convenient off-street parking available on the Alder Street side of the house, along with an adjacent storage closet.
