About this home

Welcome to this large 2 story single family Georgian home with four bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, in Galewood.

A remodeled kitchen that provides access to a deck and a backyard sanctuary with mature trees and party lights for those family get togethers. Finishing off the home is a finished basement for the kids and the family to enjoy. That and it's situated a quiet block, it's a must see!

RS-2

Residential Single-Unit (Detached House) District

The primary purpose of the RS districts is to accommodate the development of detached houses on individual lots. It is intended that RS zoning be applied in areas where the land-use pattern is characterized predominately by detached houses on individual lots or where such a land use pattern is desired in the future. The Zoning Ordinance includes three RS districts - RS2 - which are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements and floor area ratios.

Permitted uses
