Bought with April Geneva• Windermere Real Estate Midtown
Two houses on a corner lot in Tangletown. Much of these houses appear to be original, including the original hardwood floors. Neither of these homes have off-street parking and do not have grass to maintain. The entire property is elevated from the...
street level.
Yellow House: 1 bedroom, one bath, single-story home that faces 53rd. Appears to have original kitchen (no dishwasher). French doors to the bedroom from the living room.
Gray House: 2 bed, 1 bath house all on one level. Fully fenced in yard with gate to 53rd St. Large deck off the front on the house (facing Meridian) with what appear to be an old homemade hot tub. Unfinished basement with washer/dryer and workshop space. Door is basement from outside the house only.
