About This Home

As of December 2023

This wonderfully maintained American Foursquare is located right in the heart of a historic neighborhood and just minutes from the Arts District, Whirlpool, and beaches. Roomy and spacious, this move-in ready home has updates galore while maintaining it’s historical integrity with sweeping 9-ft ceilings, original woodwork and grand staircase.
