    Storage closetFull galley kitchenVictorian porch ornamentationClose to the sidewalkUpdated electricalLarge open spaceSmall side yard

    NOTICE: I already have a contract on the house contingent on inspection w/i 14 days. I am still going to have the Open House for the purpose of securing a backup contract in case the first one falls through. This is a classic "shotgun" style house with Victorian porch ornamentation. Elvis was born in one in Tupelo. Could the shotgun be the precursor of the "tiny home" craze? This one is on the block of Carr just west of Cooper that probably contains a good percentage of the shotguns in Midtown, making it a unique neighborhood of efficiently living folks. The houses are close together, close to the sidewalk, and all have porches, the same attributes characteristic of "new urbanist" developments like Harbor Town that are designed to encourage neighbor interaction. This one has just been renovated and updated for a more modern lifestyle. The wall separating the LR from the kitchen was removed, making 2 small rooms one large open space that brings together cooking, eating, living, and entertainment. There is a 10' peninsula, unheard of in a house this size, and a full galley kitchen, all appliances included. There is a storage closet off the kitchen that also contains the stack laundry center, also included. The bedroom is actually pretty good size: 11' x 16.5' and, storage being at a premium in a little house like this, I added a double-door closet that is just under 8' wide. The bathroom has the original claw-foot tub w/ shower and a new vanity. There is a raised deck out the back door from the BR. The bathroom floor is tile, the bedroom new carpet, and front room refinished original heart pine. CH/A, gas range and water heater, updated electrical and plumbing, new roof. There is a driveway for one vehicle, small side yard, and shady back yard that is fully fenced.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
