About this House
Charming 1920 Home with Investment & Development Potential
Full of character and opportunity, this charming 1920 home offers solid bones, a convenient Helena location, and plenty of upside for investors, first-time buyers, or anyone looking to build equity. With 972 square feet of living space, the home features 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom and has been a long-term rental, providing a practical foundation for its next chapter.
Inside, you’ll find a functional layout with two generously sized bedrooms, each offering dual closets, along with original details that bring warmth and character to the home. Recent updates include a brand-new roof on both the house and garage, fresh carpet in the living room, and a new dishwasher—giving the next owner a head start on improvements.
Outside, the fenced yard is framed by mature hedges and provides additional off-street parking beyond the existing two-car garage. But the real standout is the property itself. The expansive two-lot parcel stretches from 12th Avenue through to Prospect Avenue and is zoned R-2, offering unique flexibility and potential for future development. Possibilities could include a new garage with living space above, an ADU, or other expanded uses of the property, subject to buyer and buyer’s agent verification with the appropriate authorities.
Whether you’re looking for a rental property, a project to make your own, or a property with room to expand, this Helena treasure offers a straightforward opportunity to bring your vision to life. The home is vacant and easy to show. Come see the property and explore its potential in person!
