Charming cottage-style 2-story located in Wausau’s desirable Southeast neighborhood, within the John Marshall Elementary district. This move-in ready home offers a functional floor plan and thoughtful updates throughout. The current owner has invested significant care and improvements, creating a beautiful foundation for its next chapter. The completely remodeled galley kitchen features new cabinetry, ceramic plank flooring, updated appliances (included), and a custom feature cabinet with tin inlays for added character. A convenient main-floor powder room enhances everyday functionality. Refinished hardwood floors throughout the main & upper level have been sealed with a triple clear coat for lasting durability. All windows have been replaced with double-hung vinyl windows. The inviting front entry with coat closet, opens to a bright living room with an open banister staircase, bay window, and abundant natural light. A dedicated dining room with updated lighting overlooks the backyard. Upstairs, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms, a bonus room (virtually staged in photos as an office or nursery), and a beautifully renovated full bath. A door leads to the upper-level airing porch(would need railings). The serene primary bedroom includes an ante closet that opens to a surprising walk-in closet complete with an installed hanging system. The finished lower level offers additional living space with a family room, vinyl plank flooring, and painted ceiling joists that provide a clean industrial-chic aesthetic, plus a second full bathroom. Recent exterior improvements include replacement of curb, gutter, and water laterals. Per previous seller report, the roof was replaced in 2010 and the furnace, central air, and water heater were replaced in 2011. The single attached garage is extra deep providing convenience. The backyard is fenced and includes both a freestanding garden shed and attached storage shed. Don’t miss this opportunity to move right into this exceptionally charming Southeast cottage.
