Welcome to 644 Pyrtle, a 3 bedroom, 1 bath brick rambler in Salem that has been lovingly maintained by the same owner since 1965. The carpet has recently been removed to reveal the original hardwood floors, which are in mostly good condition throughout the home, with one room offering an opportunity for refinishing or updating. The home also features updated windows, siding, roof and water heater, giving the next owner a great head start on some of the bigger-ticket improvements. With a little love this home will be amazing.
The partially finished basement is a fun time capsule straight out of the 70s, complete with a bar area, pool table, wood paneling and retro red carpet. Whether you embrace the retro vibe or make it your own, it's a space with tons of personality. You'll also find the laundry area and more than 400 square feet of unfinished space ideal for storage, a workshop, or future possibilities. The basement is also a walk up configuration.
Outside, enjoy mountain views, mature trees, a level backyard, an invisible dog fence with additional chain link fencing, and a tiered deck.
With solid brick construction, original character, great bones and nearly 60 years of history, this Salem home offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy its charm while adding your own personal touches.
