This charming 2–3-bedroom home is full of character and potential, offering a rare opportunity for buyers ready to bring their vision to life. Situated on a spacious corner lot, the property features mostly newer vinyl replacement windows complemented by original stained-glass windows that add timeless charm and architectural interest.
Inside, you’ll find a convenient first-floor laundry and bathroom combination, some original woodwork, and newer furnace and water heater. While the home does need some TLC, its solid layout and generous size provide tremendous potential for the right buyer. With the proper updates, the property could be a perfect home, or potentially be transformed into two separate apartments, making it an excellent investment.
Outside, enjoy a large, fully fenced backyard—ideal for pets, gardening, or outdoor entertaining. The detached two-car garage is a standout feature, offering not only ample parking but also a workshop area and stairs leading to a second level storage area.
This property is being sold as-is, making it an ideal option for investors, renovators, or owner-occupants looking to build equity and customize a home with strong bones and classic details.
Bring your ideas and imagination—this is a property with endless potential and a chance to create something truly special.
