About this home
Charming curb appeal. Updated interiors. Flexible living space. Small in size, big on possibilities! This fully updated bungalow proves that a home’s true value lies in how well it lives, not just how many square feet it has. The inviting front picket fence sets the tone, while the thoughtfully refreshed interior delivers the comfort and functionality today’s buyers want. Two bedrooms and a full bath on the main level offer easy everyday living, complemented by a renovated kitchen with a complete set of appliances, ready for everything from quick breakfasts to leisurely weekend dinners. Need more room to spread out? The lower level adds another bedroom, bath with walk-in shower, and a versatile gathering space. Create a family hangout, hobby room, home office, or 4th non-conforming bedroom.
And here’s a feature you won’t want to overlook: an impressive concrete parking pad behind the home, accessible from the alley. You’ll have convenient off-street parking today, with exciting possibilities for tomorrow.
Even better, the property is located in an NFC financing zone, offering qualified buyers potential financing opportunities for additional improvements. Dreaming of a garage, workshop, or another project to make this home your own? It may be worth exploring the options. Come see how much this bungalow has to offer....
