About this home
Public Remarks: Back on market. Price adjusted to reflect condition and items noted in prior inspection. If you?ve been waiting for a home with character, space, and real potential, this is it. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home is rich with original charm from hardwood floors and built-ins to timeless woodwork and wide trim. The spacious eat-in kitchen offers plenty of room to gather, while the main floor laundry with a utility sink adds everyday convenience. A true highlight of the property is the detached 2-car carriage house, complete with a loft perfect for storage, a workshop, or future creative use. The . 51-acre lot adjacent to the home provides even more opportunity for expansion, gardening, or designing your ideal outdoor space. Yes, the home could use some TLC, but the character, space, and potential are all here. With a little vision, this property can truly shine once again. The property includes 2 parcels.

R2
Limited General Residence District
The R2 Limited General Residence District is designed to provide areas which are to be occupied substantially by single-family and two-family dwellings. This district is intended to accommodate existing platted lots with areas of 5,000 through 7,700 sq ft to prevent numerous dwellings from becoming nonconforming and to accommodate new higher-density development.
