What a gorgeous house! Built in 1923, this is a classic Craftsman dollhouse kit home. So much history in this beautiful property. From the moment you walk up on the covered porch, you just know this is a classic well-constructed home. Three big bedrooms and the full bathroom are upstairs. On the main level, the living room is roomy and has a bay window and fireplace. The dining room is spacious (check out the lighting fixtures). The kitchen is a functional galley style but with lots of working space. There is parking in the rear or on street (driveway between houses is shared). Sellers have maintained the property well over the years as rental property. The heating and cooling system is 5 years old; the roof is 8 years old. There is full basement with a 1/2 bath. Come with your dreams of buying a classic house and making it new again! But keep the unique features please! Come see for yourself! Priced to move and seller is motivated!
