Description

Charming single fixer-upper seeks renovation-minded partner. I’m a modest, free standing brick beauty straight out of the English countryside — think Cotswold cottage meets city charm. My slate roof can still turn heads on sunny days, some might say one of the prettiest exteriors in our picturesque, much-loved neighborhood. I’m fortunate to be a member of a welcoming, although private, courtyard community offering brick paths and a sense of connection. Honestly, I’ve seen better days inside. My interior...Charming single fixer-upper seeks renovation-minded partner. I’m a modest, free standing brick beauty straight out of the English countryside — think Cotswold cottage meets city charm. My slate roof can still turn heads on sunny days, some might say one of the prettiest exteriors in our picturesque, much-loved neighborhood. I’m fortunate to be a member of a welcoming, although private, courtyard community offering brick paths and a sense of connection. Honestly, I’ve seen better days inside. My interior is ready (okay, overdue) for a total transformation — floor to ceiling, start to finish. Don’t let that scare you off! Underneath, I have great bones, solid character and endless potential. Are you someone with vision, patience, a knack for new beginnings? Then be adventurous, believe in makeovers, second chances and the beauty of hard work paying off — swipe right and together we can create something timeless!
