What's special

Detached garageScreened-in porchSpacious fully fenced backyardReplacement windowsFirst-floor laminate flooringNewer roofOversized lot

Great opportunity to make this charming 1920 bungalow your own in the heart of Norwood! Many of the major improvements have already been completed, including a newer roof, replacement windows, first-floor laminate flooring, and energy-efficient mini-split heat pumps for heating and cooling. The flexible layout offers 2–3 bedrooms, with additional upstairs space ready for your finishing touches. Enjoy a spacious, fully fenced backyard, screened-in porch, detached garage, and off-street parking for approximately six vehicles. The oversized lot may also offer exciting possibilities for an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), potentially within the garage or as a separate structure of up to approximately 860 square feet, (subject to municipal approvals and buyer due diligence) While the interior could benefit from cosmetic updating, this home offers tremendous potential for an owner-occupant, investor, or handy buyer looking to build equity.
