About 606 E 42nd Street

Incredible renovation of 1930s Craftsman bungalow situated on one of the best streets in Hancock with no through traffic and walking distance to Hancock Golf Course, Hyde Park restaurants and shops, Shipe Park and pool, and the Commodore Perry Estate. The first floor includes a library with extensive built-ins (great as an office space), two bedrooms with shared hall bath, and a large open kitchen, living, and sunken dining space. The kitchen, designed with foodies in mind, boasts a stunning 44-inch La Cornue range, 132-bottle built-in wine refrigerator, eat-in island, quartz counters, white shaker-style cabinetry, pantry and excellent storage. Also on the first floor is a dedicated utility room. The incredible dual-sided gas fireplace faces the living room and adjacent screened porch for a truly cozy extension of the living area. Upstairs, an owner's sanctuary with a nook for a home office, a large walk-in closet with thoughtful built-ins, a luxurious bathroom with walk-in shower and dual vanities, and a private patio overlooking the neighborhood treetops. Metal roof. Automatic irrigation. Attached 1-car carport. Large backyard with room for pool. Tons of natural light, high ceilings, and reclaimed hardwood floors throughout this Hancock charmer. Zoned for Lee Elementary.
