Recently renovated Open front porch with a ramp. 1 bedroom home. A second bedroom could be in the room accessed through an archway. Both rooms have closets for hanging and with shelves. Those 2 rooms have original hardwood. Large kitchen. Separate large dining room. If you're worried about Elm St traffic backing out of the attached garage, you can use the carport in the alley. The garage has extra space with a workbench. The patio is behind the house and there are a lot of flowers. Yard behind the house is fenced but the lot to the north is not. That lot has nice evergreens and deciduous trees as a wind break. This is a great lot for camper parking or to build a large shop. Many new windows and new central air.
