About This Home

As of August 2026

Welcome to this charming and well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home located in the highly desirable First Ward community! This cute and inviting property offers a perfect blend of comfort, updates, and functionality. Recent improvements provide peace of mind, including a new central air system and furnace installed in 2025, along with updated GFCI outlets throughout the home. The living room features brand new carpet, creating a cozy space to relax and unwind. The finished basement adds incredible versatility, offering a laundry area, an additional bedroom, and a bonus room that can serve as a third bedroom, home office, or second living space. Washer and dryer convey with the home for added convenience. From the basement, step directly out to the fenced-in backyard—ideal for entertaining, pets, or outdoor enjoyment. With its layout and exterior access, the basement also presents an excellent opportunity to be converted into a private studio apartment or Airbnb-style space with its own entrance. An unfinished section of the basement, accessible from an exterior entrance, provides excellent storage space for lawn equipment, tools, or seasonal items. Conveniently located near the ballpark, ice skating rink, trails, and local shops, this home offers both lifestyle and location. Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizing, or looking for an investment opportunity, this property is full of potential!
