01About this home

This is a charming, ranch home that has a full basement. Every room gets a ton of natural light thanks to the two windows. A cool architectural element in this home is the curved arch doorways. If you're a fan of older homes, this one is a must-see. Throughout the main living areas( two bedrooms , hallway, and living room) you will see hardwood floors with tall baseboards. Both bedrooms are also generously sized. The kitchen, with its oak cabinets, has different storage option. Once you get beyond the kitchen, you will come across a small enclosed side porch with two side entrances (Perhaps a potential plant room?). The laundry hookups are located in the unfinished basement. A large yard, ideal for pet owners or anyone desiring outdoor space, is located behind the house along with a detached two-car garage. The property offers convenient access from the alleyway as well. The bathroom has storage underneath the sink and behind the door. See the potential of this home for yourself with an in-person visit. The furnace and A/C are 7 years old. The water heater is 13 years old. Don't forget to check out the HD photo gallery and the 3D immersive virtual tour of the property. Home has been pre-inspected in January 2026.
