Stop the Car!! Owner began the remodel of this beautiful historic Bungalow but the Family had to relocate her. Owner has completed remodeling such as a newer roof within the past 2 years, completely new garage concrete floor, new concrete in rear yard, upgraded electrical entry service, solar panels installed (lease transferrable), newly remodeled bathrooms, updated kitchen, new appliances, newer windows and so much more. The basement has been partially finished and awaits the new owner's custom finishes. This one will not last long and is priced the sell. Due to Owner relocation this property is being Sold As Is but Owner is offering a Home Warranty. The Owner mentions that the current Solar System has a built in backup Generator so when all lights and power goes out on the block this home stays on!!!!
