UNIQUE is the word for this one. Eclectic and perfect as an artist's residence with some really neat space to work while enjoying all the community has to offer. Or, equally suitable as a family home, college rental, or AirBnB! The possibilities with this one are limitless. Situated on a quiet street and surrounded by historic homes, this one brings the character to the neighborhood. The "basement" features a ground level front entrance, 3 seasons sun porch, a 3rd bedroom or work area, and a laundry area. Follow the stairway past its built in shelving, and you're greeted by an open floorplan, beautiful kitchen, and large windows that allow plenty of daylight and great views. Relax on the large deck and enjoy shade from the mature trees. There's an alley easement out back that would allow for future expansion in the large rear yard, perfect for a garage/studio set up!
