Property Description
On this beautiful mature tree lined street sits this cute bungalow. Well maintained 3 bed 2 bath with formal living and dining room. This home even has your quintessential midwestern wood paneled room. You can make this a family room and office or the biggest mudroom you've ever seen. Two large bedrooms and a bathroom on the main floor. Both bedrooms have carpet, but I promise you there is hardwood flooring under there. The basement has a large living area, one bedroom and bathroom, all just finished in 2026. This would make a great guest bedroom and family room. You can do so many activities down there. The garage is one of those 2.5 car garages. But really, its a 2 car garage with lots of space on both sides for tools, bikes or whatever knick knacks you need to store in there. Also has a party door for entertaining in said garage. The house is located near North Eastern University and the river. Sellers upgraded the boiler and water heater in 2022, the roof was redone right before they purchased, they upgraded the electrical service in 2025. A lot of non "sexy" stuff has been done to this house. And as we all know, there is always the opportunity to go up when you own a bungalow. Come take a look at this solid home.
