Like many of the established, traditional neighborhoods found within Missoula, the Franklin-to-the-Fort District, located within the epicenter of the Garden City, offers a marvelous melding of architectural styles, tree-lined streets, and the kind of laidback lifestyle that personifies Old School Missoula in all of its ostentation-free, quirky glory. Discreetly tucked away within this historic neighborhood awaits a most artful urban oasis that may be found at 1635 S. 8th Street W. Originally built in 1910, this 1,872' square feet (936' finished) 2 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom Arts and Crafts Bungalow was creatively reimagined with relentless ingenuity in 2019, when the home was purposely stripped to the studs; metamorphosing the residence into a sleek, contemporary reinterpretation of modern sensibilities and main level living, while incorporating luxury upgrades and refined silhouettes throughout. With seamless single-level living in mind, and no expense spared with the transformation, there's a comfortable flow to the floor plan, anchoring the private spaces of the home to the one side of the structure, while the social areas of the home are laid open like a good book, with a most interesting story to tell. Luxurious, waterproof, scratch-proof, vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the entirety of the home, offering a stylish, durable and cohesive design to each space. Originally built as a 2 Bedroom, 1 Bath home, it was imperative to the owners that the remodel include the redesign of the footprint to accommodate two Ensuite Bedrooms, and what a brilliant composition was accomplished! Both Bathrooms were thoughtfully planned to feature matching cabinetry, "Leathered" Granite counters, tasteful, hand-painted tiles, with the smaller of the two Baths hosting a Shower/Tub combo, while the Primary Bath offers a large, low-step, glass-enclosed Shower with a built-in seat. The Primary, En Suite Bedroom is deftly tucked away at the farthest corner of the residence, offering privacy, plenty of space for larger furnishings, and sweet views of the manicured landscape of the rear grounds. While somewhat smaller in scale, the Secondary Bedroom is second to none, offering just the right amount of space, good light, and is currently utilized as an Art Studio. A great deal of thought went into the design and appointments of the social areas of the residence, right down to the selection of a Beetle-Kill Pine that was aged for nearly a year, then custom-milled in order to create a most impressive Mantle that tops the Electric Fireplace in the Living Room, along with 4' Shelves affixed to exposed heavy-duty pipes; wildly creative and altogether stylish accents that "make" the space! Dubbed by the owners as their "Dream Kitchen", gorgeous "Leathered" Granite Counters were carefully selected to pair well with an artfully chosen, altogether gorgeous Italian Tile backsplash, as well as the sleek cabinetry that boasts soft-close and roll-out drawers and a plethora of storage , while a previously enclosed, unused Brick Chimney was exposed, adding an urbane and elegant flare to this warm and inviting region. Previously located within the full, unfinished Basement, the laundry facilities were moved upstairs to their own alcove, truly making this a Main-Level, Single-Living, state of the art residence. All of the windows have been replaced, as has the electrical, the plumbing, the sub-floor, and with the Roof replaced in 2022, along with the fresh interior and exterior paint, this sweet, chic abode is a peerless standout in today's marketplace. Believed to be one of the original Boulevard trees in the neighborhood, a healthy, well cared for 100+ year old Linden Tree anchors the grounds and provides incredible shade and a respite from the heat, while a towering Norway Maple throws plenty of shade to the rear yard. Low-profile stairs gradually ascend to the patio and the rear grounds, which is privatized by 12' screens, creating an enjoyable and
