Property Description
Inside, original hardwood floors set the tone for a home that has been cared for and preserved with pride. Their rich warmth and authentic character add depth to every room, creating a graceful backdrop for both everyday living and memorable gatherings. The floor plan provides three comfortable bedrooms and two full bathrooms, offering the flexibility and space needed for modern routines while maintaining the intimacy and charm that make older homes so appealing.
Beyond the home itself, the property includes an additional parcel, a valuable advantage that enhances both its presence and its potential. A private driveway adds an especially desirable convenience, providing off-street parking and an added level of everyday ease that is increasingly difficult to find in a location this well positioned. Together, these features create a property that feels complete, practical, and thoughtfully suited to real-world living.
The location further elevates the opportunity. Situated near Little Italy, the home places you close to everything, with easy access to major routes that make commuting and regional travel simple. Shopping, dining, and neighborhood amenities are all just moments away, allowing daily errands, dinners out, and weekend plans to fit naturally into your lifestyle. It is a setting that offers both convenience and connection, with the energy of the city.
For owner-occupants, this is the kind of home that delivers character, comfort, and location in equal measure. For investors, it represents a compelling opportunity with enduring appeal, strong fundamentals, and the kind of details that support long-term desirability. Whether envisioned as a personal residence or a strategic addition to a portfolio, this property stands out as a rare blend of historic beauty, practical features, and location value that continues to resonate with discerning buyers.
