Well located historical home in need of updating. This Craftsman Bungalow is being sold "As Is". On the plus side it sits on a corner lot with 2 car garage. The home is surrounded by well kept homes in significantly higher price points. Short walk to vibrant Cushing Square. The convenience is tough to beat. See Historical Narrative attachment.
