This single family Willo home, the Edmund Atkinson House, has never been on the market. Same family has lived in the home, keeping the original historic feel, updating the mechanics as necessary. Originally built in 1935, this is one of the last homes built prior to the Federal Housing Authority requiring the Ranch style guidelines in home building. 1429 Square feet, plus 400+ sq ft basement, 2 car detached tandem garage and a workshop. Only two additions since built, 1/2 bath and mudroom along with sleeping porch that was enclosed. Perfect home to make your own without correcting personal choices made by others.

WILLO SPD
Single-Family Residence District
A basic purpose of these regulations is to foster the creation of living areas which can assist the establishment of stable, functional neighborhoods. An established pattern of living in this metropolitan area reflects a tradition of single-family occupied dwellings which also emphasize outdoor living. Many of these dwellings are thereby located on relatively large urban or suburban lots.; These regulations provide standards for dwellings built at low and moderate densities. While the predominant housing type is expected to be single-family dwelling, provisions are made for alternative housing types within the same density limits.
