[ SOLD for $281,500 on 9/2-/2018 ]  Bungalow fixer in the heart of the historic “Wood Streets” with so much potential! This 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home, built in 1923 with approx 1,000 sq ft, has wood-burning fireplace, hardwood floors, claw foot tub, and indoor laundry.

This home has so much potential! Don’t miss the original glass door knob and functioning skeleton key, as well as original push-button light switches and even pocket windows! Front and rear porches, and an interesting covered entry to the basement (reminiscent of homes on the east coast).

Sure, this home needs some TLC, but it will shine once a little bit of elbow grease is applied, as well as interior/exterior paint and some intense tree/landscaping pruning.

Lot size of 8.276 sq ft (.19/acre) with mature shade trees and room for gardening.  Detached garage with sliding door and plenty of storage. Alley access and potential RV or toy parking.

Great neighbors, amazing historical neighborhood, and centrally located to shopping, entertainment, schools, and RCC.

This one will be gone in the blink of an eye. Cash offers preferred. Sold AS IS.
