Description

Home For Sale – Joplin, MO

Set in Joplin’s historic North Heights neighborhood just north of downtown, 223 North Sergeant Avenue offers that classic early-1900s charm that so many buyers are looking for. Built in 1910, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow of roughly 1,400 sq. ft. sits on an easy-to-maintain city lot of about 0.14 acres, surrounded by other character homes and tree-lined streets.

From the street, the home has instant curb appeal. A wide covered front porch stretches across the front of the house, framed by a classic hip roof and front dormer-style vent. The broad steps and full-length railing create a welcoming entry—perfect for setting out rocking chairs, potted plants, or a porch swing. It’s the kind of front porch that invites morning coffee, evening conversations, and watching the neighborhood come to life.

Step inside, and you’ll find the comfortable, efficient layout you’d expect from a historic bungalow. Public records indicate approximately 1,400 sq. ft. on a single level, giving you plenty of space for everyday living without feeling overwhelming. A traditional front living room flows naturally toward the rest of the house, offering flexibility for your furniture and décor. With a home of this era, buyers often appreciate features like tall ceilings, substantial trim, and solid construction—elements you can modernize with your own finishes while still preserving the original character.

Home For Sale Jasper County MO

Located in Joplin Mo this 2 bed 1 bath home is ready for new owners. The main living area easily accommodates both relaxation and entertaining.
