About This Home

As of July 2024

You’ll love the charm and opportunity in this classic 1942 two bedroom/1 bath home with arched doorways, glass doorknobs, coved ceilings, and old-school telephone niches. The covered front porch and gabled roofline adds even more to the curb appeal. Hardwood flooring throughout the main level; living room with windows flanking the fireplace with hearth. Dining room features French doors that lead to the great room at the back of the home, with plenty of windows overlooking the quiet backyard. Updated bright white kitchen with tile floor, laminate countertops, built-in pantry/storage. Two bedrooms and one bath complete the main level; built-in storage in the hallway. Laundry in the basement. Opportunity is knocking upstairs AND down in the basement; both areas are unfinished and offer loads of opportunity to finish for extra square footage. Detached one car garage. Walking distance to parks, schools and the Mt. Mercy campus. Don’t miss this one!
