    What's special

    Vintage 1920 Colonial revival in a great location along the Forestdale ridge, 701 has unlimited potential. In the same family for over 65 years, this great home offers desirable features like a wood burning fireplace, oak hardwood floors (begging to be uncovered & restored), wet plaster walls etc. The dining room is ready for a glow up to showcase its architectural elements. The kitchen has a large greenhouse window, & appliances are included. Could the nook be a future lavatory? The unfinished basement is great for storage, & houses the newer furnace & other mechanicals. All three bedrooms & the full bath are on the upper level. There is a secand floor balcony w/ a nice view of the yard. There are many good things here, windows, central air, electrical, vinyl siding, all updated. The oversized 2 car garage is newer, has electricity, & a door opener. The home need a complete decor makeover- but that’s the fun part. Don’t pay for someone else’s flippy taste. This is a phenomenal location near downtown, Woodward, 696, & more. Get a great 3 bedroom vintage home w/ a basement, 2 car garage, & fireplace all with possession @ closing, & @ a great price too.
