Unique opportunity in St. Joseph. This home has local history, once serving as a location where residents paid water bills in the parlor and vestibule. Situated on a corner lot with well-maintained ornamental landscaping, the property offers strong curb appeal. Vinyl siding was updated in 2023 with attention to maintaining the character of the home. Interior features include hardwood floors and detailed woodwork reflecting its vintage design, offering a solid foundation for future updates. The home is equipped with hot water heat and ductless mini-split cooling for year-round comfort, along with a backup generator for added reliability. Additional features include a one-car detached garage with loft, a carport for covered parking, and ample storage. The property has been well maintained and offers an opportunity for customization while occupied.
