There's plenty of room for a fire pit, outdoor entertaining, or creating your own backyard retreat. The large, covered front patio offers the perfect place to relax in the shade, while a gorgeous wood front door welcomes you inside. The open living/dining area features the home's original wood flooring, crown molding, and built-in shelving, giving the home timeless appeal. The kitchen offers classic wood cabinetry, a butcher block island, and an inviting layout that's ready to be personalized. The spacious primary bedroom easily accommodates a king-sized bed and includes a large walk-in closet. The primary bath renovation is already underway with an unfinished, oversized walk-in shower, beautiful penny tile flooring, and an antique vanity topped with granite, providing a great starting point for your finishing touches.

With an affordable price, an exceptional lot, and a sought-after location, this property is ready for someone to create something truly special. Keep in mind that the R-2 Zoning may even allow you to start over with a duplex or build an accessory dwelling unit for multigenerational living or guest accommodations. (Be sure and check with the city for R-2 zoning regulations.) Opportunities like this are few and far between! See it today! Note: Some photos are virtually staged to show possibilities....
