Nestled on a tree-lined street in a vibrant neighborhood, this charming cape cod is just blocks from entertainment, including the John Ball Zoo, new AMWAY Stadium soccer arena, downtown amphitheater, and the Grand River. A future aquarium is also planned nearby. Walk to downtown GVSU campus and immerse yourself in the city's lively scene. This 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home features a spacious upper-level suite. Pride of ownership is evident in recent updates, including gleaming refinished hardwood floors, new carpet, and fresh paint. The home also has a newer roof (2018), water heater (2014), and replaced windows. A two-stall garage off the alley provides convenience. The property is city-certified for rental occupancy, with all systems up to code. All offers will be reviewed by noon on Wednesday, October 1.
