About This Home

As of August 2020

Classic MidTown Home ready for you!! Here is something unique and pretty cool, First Lady Betty Ford grew up in this home from 1920 until 1932!!

The home features hardwood floor2, trey ceilings, and original woodwork. Main level consists of dining room, living room, kitchen, potential master bedroom with slider to the private deck in backyard, and full bathroom.

Upstairs is 4 more bedrooms and a full bathroom.

This home is super unique with the history of it and how it once was converted from single family home into efficiency apartments(separate staircase still exists) and finally the attic space would be fantastic if finished into a private loft master or bonus room.

This home has so much potential for you, so call today for a private showing!!
