    What's special

    Make plans to visit this classic shotgun home, located within steps of Lake Wailes lake, and just a quick stroll to the charming downtown streets! This gem has lots of updates to show off, just shy of it's 100th birthday! Brand new kitchen, floors to ceiling! New hardwood floors throughout (except master, which has original hardwood). Completely new wiring and updated baths. There is a spacious living/dining area with access to the large, screen enclosed side porch, perfect spot to enjoy morning coffee and listen to the birds chirping! You will love the convenient location... so close to all the parks, festivals, historic museums, library and churches.
