Welcome to this charming single-family home in The Valley neighborhood of Belleville. This classic-style home is perfectly sized for first time homeowners, growing families or downsizers. The main level features a living room, two versatile rooms that can function as bedrooms, living, dining, or play space, along with a spacious eat-in kitchen, a full bath with tub, and original hardwood floors. Upstairs, a finished room beneath the eaves provides an ideal guest room or home office and connects to additional attic storage. The finished basement adds valuable bonus space with a cozy den anchored by a wood-burning stove, a laundry area, a 10-foot workbench, and ample storage. Just off the kitchen, a bright mudroom opens to a fenced backyard with a stone-paver patio, lawn, and mature plantings—well suited for entertaining, gardening, or relaxing outdoors. Central A/C, a dedicated driveway, and a one-car garage add comfort and practicality. Conveniently located near schools, public transit, downtown Belleville shopping, and parks, this long family-owned home is being sold as is offering buyers the chance to bring their own vision to a classic property.
