Agent Description

This is a delayed showing. No Showings will be allowed until after 12pm Friday April 17, 2026. Sellers will not accept any offers until Saturday April 18, 2026 6pm. Fall in love with the charm, stay for the location, and make it your own. This adorable 2 bedroom bungalow sits in one of the most desirable campus neighborhoods where morning walks to coffee, quick trips to campus, and easy access to everything become part of your everyday rhythm.

Lovingly cared for over the years, this home has been filled with joy, laughter, and memories... and now it's ready for its next chapter. Inside, you'll find a warm and inviting layout with a kitchen featuring newer appliances but ready for a fresh re-do, a full bathroom on the main level, and all the cozy character you'd expect in a classic bungalow.

Downstairs, the unfinished basement offers bonus space along with a unique bathroom setup for an additional 3/4 bath situation. Even better, a brand-new waterproofing system with transferable warranty gives peace of mind as you plan your updates. Outside, the yard is bursting with established plantings and greenery ready to be tamed into your own private oasis.

The detached one car garage is in need of repair or could be a fresh start for something new. Whether you're looking to invest, renovate, or simply create a home that reflects your own style, this is a rare opportunity to own in a prime location and bring your vision to life.
