About This Home

As of June 2022

Welcome to 839 Valley Ave! A quaint 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom two-story home on the city's northwest side. Located in one of GR's best kept secrets, this NW community boasts Sullivan Field and a recently improved neighborhood playground. Just minutes from downtown GR, the bridge street corridor, John Ball Zoo, and a short drive to major expressways, you can rest assured that this home's location can't be beat! It's true what they say, ''the west side is the best side''!
This meticulously maintained home offers over 1,200 sqft of living space and tons of potential. NEW 6/21: Furnace and A/C with transferrable warranty!
Upon entry, you'll notice the charm and character of this 1920s home is alive and well. A spacious & cozy living room draws an abundance of natural light. In the dining room, a beautiful set of original French doors with glass doorknobs offer the perfect backdrop for any occasion. Retreat to the sunroom at the back of the home with your favorite book, coffee, tea or a glass of wine.
You'll be impressed with the amount of cabinet space within the kitchen footprint. As it is, the kitchen functions perfectly. With a creative eye, it could be transformed to something spectacular!
Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and a large, full bathroom. The basement offers great storage space and flex space to use as you see fit. A 2-stall, detached garage and a full driveway provide more than enough off-street parking.
Showings to begin at 5pm on Friday (4/22). Seller directs listing broker/agent to hold all offers until 4/26/22 2 4pm.
