Have you been wondering what’s happening at 232 Marquette Ave? Nestled in the highly sought-after North Shore Triangle, this classic 1920s stucco two-story offers a rare opportunity to restore and reimagine a home filled with character. Owned by the same family for over 60 years, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home sits on a slightly larger corner lot—just a block from the St. Joe River and caddy-corner from Nokomis Park. Step inside to discover original hardwood floors throughout most of the main and upper level, charming built-in shelving and drawers, and warm sunrooms that would make an ideal office, reading nook, or sitting area. While the home needs significant renovation—including a full kitchen and bath remodel—it boasts strong bones and great potential. Many of the rooms have already begun the transition from plaster to drywall. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace (not used in decades), and the rear porch has been updated with composite decking and vinyl railing. 29 of the 37 windows have been upgraded with quality Andersen wood windows. There is also a commode in the basement. With vision and updates, this home could shine again and become a true showpiece in one of South Bend’s most desirable neighborhoods. Home is being sold as-is. Roof & Furnace Inspection on file. Electrical panel has been updated; no documentation on date. Potential for main-level laundry.
