Property Description
Start your 2026 in this historic Morley Heights bungalow, a well preserved 1920s residence that maintains its original architectural integrity. Positioned on a prominent corner lot with off street parking, the home is defined by a signature wrap around front porch that serves as a spacious outdoor living area. The interior provides a living room with dining area, including a main floor full bathroom, and bonus room for an office or craft area. The upper level features a primary bedroom with original hardwood floors and a versatile walkthrough space, perfectly suited for a home office, nursery, or large walk in closet. Below, an unfinished basement offers significant storage or the potential for future equity building customization. Reflecting its heritage as part of the original planned housing for the Marshall Wells Hardware Company, the property is a short walk from Morley Heights Park and its community orchard, and is in the East school district. This residence presents a flexible opportunity for an owner occupant or an investor looking to utilize the property's rental licensing, making it a compelling choice for those seeking a home with a rich heritage and a prime location in Duluth.
