Opportunities like this are rare in the Avondale neighborhood, where homes seldom come on the market. This 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch has only had two owners. Step inside to find original hardwood floors that flow through the spacious living and dining rooms, offering warmth and timeless character. Ready for your personal touch, this home is a solid canvas with great bones and endless potential. The generously sized primary suite features a rare find in homes of this era: an exceptionally large walk-in closet and an ensuite bath. Outside, a detached two-car garage is conveniently connected to the home by a short breezeway, combining practicality with charm. Whether you're looking to settle into a quiet, established neighborhood or bring fresh ideas to a classic layout, this Avondale gem is a true opportunity.
