About This Home

As of September 2018

These splendidly large Eastown Craftsman homes rarely come available, especially one so perfectly located. This has been used as a duplex in various ways over the years and just as easily could be used as a single family home. Size & architecture would normally put this gorgeous place into a higher price range but some sweat equity is reserved for the next buyer. This is a rare, advantageous opportunity to live large & economically while making a sound investment. With parking.
