A one-car detached garage adds convenience and additional storage. Major updates include electrical work and window replacements in 2008, a new roof and siding...Charming 1912 bungalow situated on a corner lot, offering a blend of historic character and modern updates.

The unfinished basement needs repair but provides additional potential for storage or expansion and has been mud-jacked along two walls. A one-car detached garage adds convenience and additional storage. Major updates include electrical work and window replacements in 2008, a new roof and siding completed in 2011, and an HVAC system installed in 2017. The home is in need of some repair and offers an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to restore and personalize a classic property. This home is ideal for those who appreciate early 20th-century craftsmanship combined with modern comfort and value.
