About This Home

Step inside 1608 W Main St, a 1940 traditional two-story on Ashland's west side, with high quality upgrades already complete — a metal roof, vinyl siding, a high-efficiency natural gas furnace with central air, and a tankless water heater. The main floor holds an eat-in kitchen with a peninsula that seats two, a separate dining room, and a living room that opens to the stair hall, along with a full bath on the main level. Both bedrooms are upstairs under the eaves, the large main bedroom at twelve by thirteen and the second at eight by twelve, so the sleeping rooms stay clear of the living space below. The basement runs the full footprint, unfinished, with concrete block walls, headroom enough to stand and work comfortably, and room for the laundry, the mechanicals, and storage besides. A half bath is framed and plumbed in, with the fixtures set and operational; the lower portion of the bathroom wall is open, which a weekend project and a new door would complete. The block carries slight surface staining from past seepage; a sump pit and a dehumidifier keep the space dry. The lot runs sixty by one hundred forty with a rear deck, a mature apple tree, and a detached two-car garage with gravel drive and off-street parking, all within walking distance of downtown and the Lake Superior shore. This is a well maintained house for a buyer who wants a quality home that has been significantly upgraded through the years.
