Victorian cottage with wood floors and VERY high ceilings. This house feels like a farmhouse in the city. Three bedrooms and two baths on a third of an acre in the South Front area of downtown. Lot is zoned mixed use. Walking distance to The Harp, The Satellite, Benny's Big Time Pizza, The Second Glass, New Anthem Beer Project, Block Taco. Two blocks further and you are at Greenfield Lake with tennis courts, paddle boats, playground and skate park.
This vintage home is fully livable but with so much more potential, like a diamond waiting to be polished. Good price for a great investment in this upcoming area. Home has been operating as an STR.
Furnishings negotiable (art not included). Home is being sold as-is and owner will make no repairs.
