First time homebuyers and investors! They say location is everything and this home on the corner of Ottari and Grace just off of Merrimon Ave is perfect for your first home or rental. Potential to make a few changes and increase value over time. Take Kimberly to enjoy a serene drive home and enjoy great restaurants, coffee shop, and a bakery just around the corner. Stay home and have morning coffee on the front patio to greet neighbors or escape to the private screened rear porch. Original hardwoods, never painted trim and doors are so hard to find and give this home character. It lives much larger than it's size with an oversized living and dining room. Find tons of storage with closets lining two sides of the owner bedroom and deep coat and linen closets. The basement with it's outside entrance would make a great workroom with oversized utility sink and half bath. Take your choice of laundry options as there is currently access in a main floor bedroom and plumbing hookup downstairs.
