Most Realtors will tell you to find the worst house in the best location, Well… This is an adorable cottage located on the best street suffering from deferred maintenance. Feels like a granny kind of house that could easily be infused with all of the nooks and crannies one could muster up within their imagination. The bones are there – but there is lots to do. A sweet and simple twenties English with hardwoods present, some built INS, and an arched fireplace. Very light and bright but definitely could be brighter with the love it longs for. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, dining area off the living room and a cozy turret just awaiting a puzzle table & chandelier. The kitchen, well it’s a kitchen with loads of possibilities if you can imagine it. Like a banquette with casement windows open to the yard, or your future O’Keeffe and Merritt highlighting the beauty of the past. The detached garage is surrounded by large English styled wood fencing , a grassy rear yard, and driveway. Once upon a time, there were stairs to the attic but now only a door and stair cleats remain to what once was. This darling is being sold as is but you can dream about it’s potential like I am about all that could be done to restore this little gem to the fairy-tale it deserves to be.
