On a gentle hill overlooking the famous Route 66, this 1940s brick bungalow sits way back from the street and is MUCH larger than it looks. Come enjoy a peaceful treehouse vibe, along with nearly 2700 SQUARE FEET of finished living space! You'll love the original vintage details like hardwood floors, tiled bathroom and charming stone fireplace. Also the newer features, like vinyl windows, sleek modern kitchen, zoned HVAC, tankless water heater, detached garage, updated electric & sewer lateral, and a two-story addition that includes a family room, dining room and spacious primary suite with double walk-in closets and jet soaking tub. BONUS: there's also a finished basement with a separate entrance, full bath and rough-ins for a kitchenette! It could be a whole separate apartment! The house is in great condition but needs fresh exterior paint, new deck boards and a lower bath shower surround. Sold AS-IS, with seller doing no inspections or repairs. This GEM will definitely surprise you!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
