Updated two-story home in the Victory neighborhood with a more private setting than the Penn
Avenue address might suggest. The home is set back from Penn, with driveway access and
parking off 39th Avenue. Inside, you’ll find original hardwood floors, a refreshed kitchen with
marble countertops, generous cabinet space, and a spacious upper-level full bath with jetted tub.
All three bedrooms are located upstairs, with comfortable main-floor living and dining spaces.
The full unfinished basement provides laundry, storage, and future flex-space potential, plus a
newer boiler heating system. Outside, enjoy the stucco exterior, vinyl windows, front porch,
large patio, detached garage, and a generous yard with room to garden, play, or entertain. Clean,
updated, and available for quick possession
