About This Home

As of November 2020

First time on the market EVER! Built in 1929 it has remained in the family for almost 100 years. This cute bungalow has been lightly finished but is waiting on the next owners to put their love into it. The Oak hardwood floors have been refinished to their original luster and the interior has been recently painted. Downstairs is a bonus room that the owners used as a third bedroom for many years. There is a full basement/workshop and a deep, pass through garage that opens to the backyard. Dual pane windows, an updated heater and hot water tank. The yard is a very deep 6475 sq. ft. lot ready for the new owners personal touch. Truly a rare find on a highly desirable and walk friendly street and neighborhood. Close to shops and numerous restaurants, amenities, Dimond park and other parks and recreation areas, public transportation options and major freeways. Make this house your home!
