About This Home

As of August 2017

This classic Northwest row has good bones including a newer city inspected gas furnace, and water heater. As you enter into the foyer and living room you will appreciate the original woodworking in this home. Another rare find is the half bath on the first floor. There is also a one car garage so no worries about parking. With some cosmetic updates this house will shine again.
