Property Description
Welcome to 703 Arthur Ave, the home showcases a perfect blend of modern comfort with timeless character. Sitting on an oversized double lot, this property shines with a dreamy 440 sq ft she-shed complete with a loft bedroom, gas fireplace, and cooling system for year-round use. Outdoors, you’ll also find a composite deck with canopy, large enclosed gazebo, potting shed, and not one but two garages, including a two-car garage with loft space above. The double driveway offers ample parking, leading to a spacious cement pad and the second detached garage—perfect for extra vehicles, storage, or a workshop. Thoughtful planning includes underground water and electrical lines to the she-shed for convenience and functionality. Inside the home, enjoy numerous updates: newer furnace and A/C (3 yrs), water heater (5 yrs), generator (4 yrs), water line (1 yr), plus windows, siding, roof, and whole-house insulation for peace of mind. A full kitchen remodel features maple hardwood floors, a restored Hoosier cabinet, pot filler, built-in coffee station, and a cozy kitchenette off the primary suite. Relax on the front porch swing, unwind in the cozy solarium, or retreat to the finished attic space for a home office or creative hideaway. Ideally located near Grandview University and historic Union Park, this hidden gem also offers access to InvestDSM grant funds—a rare chance to enhance both value and charm in one perfect package.
