About This Property

Virtually Staged. NEW PRICING, $174,000, PRESENTS A STRONG VALUE IN THIS PRICE RANGE. Built in 1957, this solid block home offers a simple, efficient layout for someone who values comfort and practicality. With 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom across 822 square feet, the space is manageable, functional, and easy to maintain — a strong fit for a first-time buyer, someone looking to downsize, or anyone wanting a home without excess upkeep. The living and dining areas share one cohesive space, creating a natural flow for everyday routines. The layout makes smart use of the square footage, with each area clearly defined yet connected. The kitchen remains largely original, offering good cabinet storage and workspace, along with a new flat-top stove installed in August 2025. It works well as it stands and gives the next owner the flexibility to update over time if they choose. Both bedrooms are comfortably sized and positioned for privacy, with the full bathroom centrally located. The laundry room is inside the home — accessible from the dining area or directly from the carport — which adds convenience and practical functionality. Key improvements have already been completed, including a roof replacement in 2016 and an updated electric panel in 2016. A one-car carport provides covered parking and direct access into the home. For buyers who appreciate a well-built mid-century property with important updates already handled and the opportunity to personalize at their own pace, this home offers a straightforward and approachable ownership opportunity.
