Welcome to 3228 Mars Ave — a sweet north-side Eau Claire home w/ a fenced yard your dog will love just as much as you do. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers the kind of simple, comfortable living that makes Eau Claire feel like home: an easy-to-maintain layout, a full basement with expanding potential, a detached garage, storage shed, back deck, & a mature yard w/ a chain-link fence added in 2025 — ideal for letting the dog out, playing fetch, or enjoying quiet evenings outside without the extra hassle.

Outside, the deck was stained and screws were replaced in 2025, the ash tree was treated in 2026, landscaping was extended, and staircase treads were added in 2026.
