About This Home

As of September 2025

Charming Bungalow on a Corner Lot Welcome to this 2-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow nestled on a spacious corner with two lots and a large, fenced backyard-perfect for outdoor living, pets, or a garden oasis. A detached 2-car garage adds convenience and storage space. Inside, you'll find generously sized rooms and original hardwood floors hiding beneath the carpet in the living room and bedrooms, just waiting to be uncovered and restored. The large sunroom overlooks the backyard and adds even more living space to relax or entertain. This home offers great bones and character, but it does need some TLC and finishing touches to bring it back to its full charm. Whether you're an investor, first-time buyer, or someone looking for a project, this property has tons of potential to make it your own!
