    What's special

    WE HAVE MULTIPLE OFFERS. HIGHEST AND BEST DUE MONDAY AUGUST 10th at 10AM. This Morningside neighborhood home is a charmer that is ready to be rehabbed. The full brick exterior with limestone trim offers strong curb appeal. The living room features a unique natural fireplace, perfect for entertaining and cozy gatherings with family and friends. The wall between the dining room and living room has been removed to optimize space and flow. The large kitchen has a stylish 1960s retro appeal with plenty of counter and cabinet space. There are two generously sized first-floor bedrooms, plus a lofty second-floor bedroom. This house needs to be fully rehabbed, as reflected in price.
