Solid home perfect for a starter home or investment property. This home is conveniently located off Mt. Vernon Rd, walking distance to shopping and restaurants. This home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. All new carpet in the living room and bedrooms and LVP in the kitchen and bathrooms. New bath vanity, stools, and shower. Open floor plan concept, lots of cabinet space in the eat-in kitchen, and a nice sized living area with lots of natural light. The lower level has tons of potential to finish the way you want, plus a full bathroom with a new shower and laundry hook-ups. Low maintenance yard with a detached 2 car over sized garage which would be ideal for a workshop, neighbors only on one side, and tall bushes flank the other side of the property. This was a former rental property with $1100 monthly income. See it for yourself.
This 3 bedroom home offers a beautiful kitchen and new carpet. With a little TLC the basement could make a great family space. The home has a nice 2 stall garage and is close to hospitals and downtown. Property was built prior to 1978. The potential for Lead Based Paint could exist.

T-R1
Traditional Residential Single Unit District
The Traditional Residential Single Unit T-R1 district is intended to provide for single-unit neighborhood development at an urban density of four to 12 units per acre, depending on location. T-R1 is appropriate within areas developed at this density and characterized by a predominance of older residential homes and traditional neighborhood development, which typically will include smaller single unit residential lots, a grid street pattern, and alleys. T-R1 is also intended to be applied to new and infill areas of the community which are intended to be developed in a similar pattern. T-R1 is also an appropriate transition between lower density residential development and mixed-use or non-residential development.
