6622 Macklind Avenue

Mark Morrison would be proud because 6622 Macklind is BACK! This classic 2 bed, 1 bath South City brick bungalow is making its return, and we’d say the Mack is lookin’ pretty good. Start with the gorgeous original wood front door, sturdy enough to have seen some things, then step inside to hardwood flooring, glass block windows and the coziest living room nook this side of Macklind. Add a good chair, your favorite lamp and suddenly you’re a person who reads before bed. The adjacent dining room keeps things polished with hardwood floors, updated lighting and a moody accent wall ready for dinner parties, card games or takeout served on the good plates. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, solid wood cabinetry, tile flooring, built-in shelving and a garden window for herbs, flowers or whichever plant is currently fighting for its life. Just beyond is the sweetest four seasons room, wrapped in wood paneling and lined with windows that practically demand flowy linen curtains. It’s perfect for summer evenings without the mosquitoes, Sunday football in the fall or quietly disappearing with a cup of coffee whenever the group chat gets too active. The full bath is bursting with beautifully preserved vintage charm, including freshly re-glazed tile, original mosaic flooring, new vanity, and stunning leaded glass windows. Both bedrooms offer hardwood floors, generous space and closets that can actually hold more than four shirts. Downstairs, the unfinished basement is ready for whatever you’re cookin’ up next. Workshop, workout room, storage headquarters or a place to hide every holiday decoration you own. Dealer’s choice. Out back, the fully fenced yard delivers lush grass, new fence, a fire pit and plenty of room for your next fall or halloween bash (which is big around here). With a new roof, new A/C, insulated attic that is just waiting your dream finishes for extra square footage, updated kitchen and new fence, this comeback has already handled the heavy lifting. Walkable to neighborhood food, coffee and local bars, yet tucked onto a quiet street where neighbors and their dogs still make the rounds. Return of the Mack? Oh yes, it is here. CHEERS!
