Nestled in this historic Drake neighborhood on the edge of Beaverdale, you will find this 2-bedroom Bungalow with 1 - 3/4 bathrooms and a partially finished basement that includes a 3/4 bath that is not on the assessors site. The first thing you will notice is the large enclosed front porch, it is a shame that you don't see them like this anymore. Step inside and you will find a large combination open living room, dining room and a galley kitchen. Both bedrooms are good-sized. The first bedroom features a trendy sliding barn door. The rear yard is fenced and extends approximately 10' beyond the rear fence. This little gem has some nice updates and is a great starter home with a convenient location within walking distance to the Drake Bell Center Recreation Services. You may want to hurry! This is the one you have been waiting for at a price that won’t leave you “house poor”!
