## Description

### Agent Description
Welcome to 5616 8th Ave S—an iconic Crestwood cottage full of charm, thoughtful updates, and an unbeatable location! With nearly 2,000 square feet, this home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, an updated and spacious kitchen, formal dining room, sunroom, and a bonus room upstairs—perfect for whatever you need. Enjoy being minutes from downtown and local favorites like The Filling Station, shopping, coffee shops, and grocery stores—truly the best of Crestwood living. Other updates include a brand new driveway and landscaping, a new water heater (2024), and in 2019, electrical and plumbing systems were brought up to code, sewer lines replaced, and plantation shutters added. You’ll also love having SO much storage, a basement workshop space, a one car garage, and a large backyard made for gathering. This is the kind of home that feels special the moment you arrive—come see it for yourself!
