As of March 2023The saying that good things come to those who wait cannot be truer for 2271 Virginia St. Loved by the same family & available for the 1st time in 82 yrs, this is the one you've waited for.

Upstairs are three+ bedrooms & two full updated bathrooms which includes a primary Suite w dual closets+, dual sink vanity & shower over tub. Numerous windows bathe the home w natural sunlight.
