Property Description

House Flipper’s Dream! c. 1918 Craftsman House being sold as-is with all personal items remaining with property and included with sale. If you’ve ever dreamed of restoring a turn-of-the-century Craftsman-style home, this is your chance. Built in 1918, this classic Craftsman is filled with character and historic charm and is ready for someone with vision to bring it back to life. While the home needs significant work, the potential is undeniable. House sits on two parcels totaling .44 acres. Original details shine throughout, including hardwood flooring, wide oak trim, an open staircase, and three sets French doors. Enjoy outdoor living on the covered front porch or the wrap-around covered back porch, and appreciate timeless features such as a claw-foot tub. The main level offers a large living room with brick fireplace, two additional versatile rooms ideal for an office or bedroom, a large kitchen, a half bath, and a convenient rear mudroom with main level laundry. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms and an oversized bathroom featuring a claw-foot tub and separate shower. A water line break in the upper bathroom this winter has caused damage to the rooms below, including kitchen, mudroom and back room. Newer hot water heater, but it will need a furnace and a/c. With the right updates and attention, this Craftsman could once again be a true showpiece.
