About This Home
As of August 2025Accepted contingent offer with no seller right to cancel. This Victorian farmhouse has been in the same family since 1954. The current family members have owned the home since 1974. The property is centrally located and is close to Ferndale services and activities. The home shows exceptionable pride of ownership and is well known in the Ferndale community. The home was originally built by Mr. Lee Briggs a prominent gambler who employed his talents at the local saloons close by. This well maintained home is a step back in the early Ferndale history. The main house features 4 good size bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The last interior decorating was done during the 1990s and the home's interior could use some TLC and updating. The exterior is in excellent condition. Ther The oversized parcel is .44 acres and is flat with good southern exposure. A gardener's delight! The property is fully landscaped but it can still be developed with more extensive plantings. City approved sewer lateral repairs have been completed. Potential buyers should verify all of the listing details. The City of Ferndale should be contacted regarding any future development plans.
