About This Home
As of April 2022Exceptional WDM home provides a lifestyle similar to much more expensive homes. Wonderful character and livability. Near the corner of Vine and 8th and walking distance to 2 parks. Hillside, Stillwell, the new Fareway store and all that historic 5th St. has to offer. Hardwood floors and moldings, updated kitchen and baths including a marvelous walk in pantry. Enclosed wrap around front porch has all new Pella replacement windows and is definitely extra living space. New windows on back porch allow it to be a much desired mud room/drop zone. Giant new deck in back. 3 1/2 car insulated garage with new doors. Jacuzzi tub and walk in shower on main floor. Parlor could easily be converted to 1st floor 4th bedroom. Wonderful home.
