Great mid-town location, you can walk to the famous Dew Drop Inn restaurant! When you pull up to the house you will see the full length covered front porch great for sitting out and having conversations with friends and neighbors as they stroll by on the shaded sidewalk. The other thing you will see is the new roof that was installed in 2025. You also have a newer hot water heater. Out back you have a nice size fenced in back yard with a 14X11 deck to enjoy cookouts with the family. Inside you have a butler’s pantry between the kitchen and dining room, a large living room and a separate breakfast room. The fireplaces are inoperable. The home does need some work but is priced to reflect that. All information provided is deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.

Single-Family Residential Districts
These districts are composed of both developed and largely undeveloped areas. The developed areas contain mainly one-family dwellings and small open areas, usually subdivided, where residential development seems likely to occur; few two-family and multiple-family dwellings are found in these developed areas. It is anticipated that most of the large undeveloped areas will ultimately be developed for residential use. The district regulations are designed to protect the residential character of the developed areas by prohibiting commercial activities and encouraging a suitable neighborhood environment for family life.
