What's special

New windowsNew gas furnaceSs refrigerator

Have you been waiting for an affordable home in the city that doesn't need renovation? This is the one! It sits back and up off of the street. Away from foot traffic and cars. The back yard is newly fenced and fairly private. The best part is that you can have off street parking from the alley, with a small modification to the rear fence! The home is spacious and feels larger than the numbers. The assessor sq. footage is not correct and does not take the 3rd bedroom/3rd floor into account. There is a New Gas Furnace and New Windows! A SS refrigerator and gas range/oven complete a very nice sized and bright kitchen.
