Tucked onto a quiet block of S. Lazelle Street, this 1900 brick rowhome is the kind of German Village property that doesn't come up often. Exposed brick, high ceilings, and crown molding give the living space real character, and a decorative fireplace anchors the room. The kitchen was refreshed in 2023 with a new backsplash, painted cabinets, and new flooring, and both bathrooms have been updated too, from a new vanity in the full bath to a new faucet and wallpaper in the half. Storage is rarely a strength in a home this age, but two custom closets and a custom-built bedroom closet solve that here. Downstairs, a semi-finished basement adds usable space you won't find in most homes on this block. Step outside to a fenced backyard, or just enjoy how easy the location is to live in: Stauf's, Katzinger's, The Book Loft, and Pistacia Vera are all within walking distance, and the street itself stays quiet with easy street parking. A newer water heater and a small, well-run 4-unit HOA, just $140 a month, covering exterior repairs, seasonal yard care, and additional insurance, keep ownership simple. German Village doesn't hide many gems this good. Come see it before it's gone.
