This grand old 'dame' born in 1895, is looking for some love and attention. Tremendous location just off tree-lined Comm Ave at the base of Hearbreak Hill & near Temple Emanuel. She has great bones but does need a lot of care to return to glory but with the right vision and care, this home will be revived. The first floor offers 9 foot ceilings and a magnificent center entrance fireplace that was built to heat the entire home, the second floor has 8.5 foot ceilings and 4 spacious bedrooms. The 3rd floor has an additional 570 square feet which are not included in public record, plenty of room for another bedroom and bath. While this property has HUGE potential, it does need a complete renovation & is being sold as-is so bring your contractor! All showings in accordance with COVID guidelines. Contact agent directly for a comprehensive video.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
