About this House

Step into this classic 2-bedroom, 1-bath American Foursquare, filled with original charm and warm Craftsman touches throughout. The home features beautiful original woodwork—much of it still in great shape and ready for restoration. Hardwood flooring runs throughout the entire house, except for the kitchen and full bath, offering a great foundation for refinishing and enhancing the home's character. You'll also find a utility bathroom in the basement, adding convenience and flexibility.

Several major updates have already been done, including Pella replacement windows, a brand-new furnace and humidifier, an updated full bathroom upstairs, and a newer 200-amp electric panel. The front porch features newer railings, maintaining the home's classic curb appeal while giving it a refreshed look.

One of the standout features is the oversized two-story detached garage, which includes finished living space and its own heat source—an ideal setup for a possible accessory dwelling, studio, workshop, or home office (no bathroom currently installed).

With solid updates, great bones, and loads of original character, this home is perfect for someone ready to add their own finishing touches. A little paint and some refinished floors will make this one truly shine!

    "This is not a bad neighborhood. If you stay to yourself then you will be alright. The only thing I do not like is there are no sidewalks. I have many nieces and nephews that visit frequently and when we take walks or ride bikes around the neighborhood we have to be in the street. I’m surprised there are no sidewalks with all the schools nearby. "
