Like many of the established, traditional neighborhoods found within the heart of Missoula, the Franklin-to-the Fort District offers a marvelous melding of architectural styles, mixed-use housing, tree-lined streets and the kind of laid back lifestyle that personifies the Garden City in all of its quirky glory. Discreetly ensconced within the heart of Central Missoula, 1630 S. 9th Street W. offers an incredible c. 1936, 2 Bedroom, 2 B Bath, 1,500 square foot , Single Level Cottage-style residence that is sure to capture your heart and imagination. The locale of this Storybook Cottage is surprisingly quiet, offering a real sense of place and a touch of grace in this fast-paced world of ours. Tucked away mid-block, the curb appeal of this incredible offering is nothing short of magical, as a wee picket fence line invites you to travel beneath the canopy of an ancient Cottonwood Tree that anchors the East end of the two city lots, while the eye is drawn in every direction, landing upon a remarkable variety of perennial plantings that cradle these special grounds. A delightful covered front stoop has room enough for a chair or two so you can just sit back and enjoy the beauty of the landscape, but if you've forgotten something inside, a delightful wooden screen door will distinctively "Slam!" close behind you, reminding you of Summers gone by, as that is a sound never equaled, nor forgotten. In true Cottage style, the arrival sequence of this abode graciously welcomes one and all to the understated, yet approachable, elegance of design of the interior, with the open and airy Living Room offering an abundance of windows and natural light, Crown Molding ceiling accents, built-in Book Shelves, and offering plenty of display space for favored artworks or treasured books. There's also a fantastic large Picture Window that so beautifully frames the views of the front yard's incomparable landscape design. Gorgeous Oak Hardwood flooring sets the stage in this region, and flows so beautifully beneath the arched doorway of the Formal Dining Room, where several windows offers an abundance of ambient light, while the comfortable space invites gatherings and inspires great conversations. The culinary center of the home, the Kitchen is a flavorful melange of original Birch Cabinetry, attractive Corian counters, a suite of stainless appliances, including a marvy "Jetsonian" Oven/Range, and the opportunity to savor it all at your leisure. Discreetly anchoring the north end of the Main Level, the first Bedroom features Oak Hardwood Flooring, a good sized closet, and incredible back yard views, as well as ease of access to the first of the two remodeled Bathrooms, with the first Bathroom boasting colorful tiled backsplash for the newer Tub/Shower insert, and an incredible custom-designed and crafted Vanity that offers atypical Knotty Pine accents, a Corian-topped counter and a square/raised Basin. There's even a deep, recessed cubby tucked behind the door for Linen and Product storage. A stairway off of the Kitchen ascends to the primarily finished Basement quarters where a fantastic and artful glaze was applied atop the cement flooring throughout this level, while Cottage-paned French doors were added to the Primary Bedroom and the comfortably-sized Bonus Room across the way. The Primary Bedroom is altogether roomy and inviting, and does offer a large Walk-In Closet and discreet access to the 2nd Bathroom, a space in which the "Penny" tiles were adjusted for inflation, and are really more the size of a Silver Dollars at the base, while Subway Tiles form the Backsplash of the low-step Shower. Tucked around the corner, the Laundry Room/Furnace Room offers a Utility Sink, plenty of shelving, and the recent addition of a Hot Water on Demand Heater. Like most folks, you'll want to spend as much time as possible outside, and with the full length covered Patio, you most certainly can in any kind of weather, and also have safe access to t
