About This Home

As of July 2024

Enjoy single family, urban living in the center of Houghton! Welcome to 404 East Houghton, where original woodworking meets modern finishes. This home is only one block from downtown, and close to MTU and all of the city amenities. Enter through the recently refreshed front porch and enjoy the updated features that include a newer kitchen with stainless steel appliances, custom tile and a vent hood. Within the kitchen there's a stackable washer and dryer. You have a designer full bathroom off of the kitchen (back staircase was removed to attain this space). Outside of the home, there's a small covered porch off the kitchen to enjoy Keweenaw summer living and a semi private yard with a parking pad and room for some landscaping. Also on the first floor, there's a sunny front room that can be used for whatever your heart desires. It counted as a bedroom on the listing, but doesn't have a closet. First floor has new flooring and new sheetrock in most spaces. The historic staircase leads you to the upstairs, which has three bedrooms. Also, there's a full bathroom with custom tile and modern fixtures. The north bedroom has a beautiful view of the canal and access to the unfinished attic. All new radiators and furnace in 2023. All information is believed accurate but not warranted. Buyer to verify all information. Taxes are subject to change on sale.
