This north-side mid-century house is a rarity! This one-owner 1956 home has been the center of the original owners' life's story for nearly 69 years! It's been well-maintained over the decades. There's plenty of updates (HVAC, kitchen, bath) here, but there's so much of the original mid-century character intact and ready for you to discover and restore. The yard is full of perennials in the gardens, there's a enclosed carport, a detached shop and garden shed. All of this is walking distance to parks and schools. Now's your chance to make this special house yours!
