About This Home
As of April 2022Meet Ardy! She is a warm and generous home with very strong bones, and she is turning 100 this year! So, to celebrate, she is looking for a new owner! She has incredible woodwork and character with built-in dining room storage with leaded glass doors, stained-glass light fixtures, vintage leaded glass windows, and glass door knobs. She has so many unique features, but has been ''keeping up with the times'' is many ways as well. She's replaced her roof, refinished her hardwood floors, replaced a majority of her windows with Anderson windows, put new cabinets in her kitchen, and put new vanities and toilets in her bathrooms. She has a spacious attic that could be finished to a variety of uses! Her owners enjoy short walks to Garfield Park, Alger Square, and a short commute to downtown Grand Rapids. Come meet Ardy and wish her a happy 100th birthday! Open house Saturday 3/12 from 12-2PM. Offers due Tues 3/15 by 5PM.
