Many generations have enjoyed swinging from the exceptionally large tree in the extensive backyard. Bring this charming home back to its original glory while benefiting from important updates completed over the years, including the electrical panel and a recently upgraded sewer line from the home to the street. Washing machine has been relocated from the kitchen to the garage, where a sump pump was also installed to help prevent water issues. The kitchen offers a generous space, large enough to accommodate a dining table or an island with seating. The gas oven, washer and dryer are included with the property. Warm up the home with its wood burning fireplace in the living room. Enjoy this prime location just under 1/2 mile from the newly renovated Vaughn Middle School, a little over a mile to the shopping and dining of Midtown, and approximately 1.5 miles to Renown Hospital. With solid bones and a location in the true old heart of Reno, this home presents a wonderful opportunity for the right buyer. Property needs new roof and furnace. Being sold "as is" with no seller repairs. AGENTS- please view private remarks before inquiring.
