About This Home

As of September 2021

Walk to Aquinas College (1 block!) with this Fulton Heights NE 3 bedroom 1.5 bath all-brick gem. A few blocks from Family Fare, close to Eastown... and so much more. Talk about location! Just one or two owners all these years and very well loved home. Lots of windows provide abundant natural light and comfortable air flow. So much character- hardwood floors, custom trim, stairway skirt-board, fireplace in lower family room for cozy fall and winter nights. Tons of storage. Full basement. Garage. The fenced backyard is a haven for nature. Move in and make this home yours at close!
