    What's special

    Cute bungalow with lots of potential in great northside neighborhood. This conveniently located 2 bedroom property makes for a great starter home (or empty nester) that would be CHEAPER THAN RENTING!! The enclosed front porch adds great square footage and is the perfect place to relax after a long day. Stepping inside, you will notice the ARCHED ENTRY-WAYS and the BUILT-INS. There are newer windows throughout and down in the DRY BASEMENT there is a newer hot water heater. Let the kids and/or pets play outside in the LARGE FENCED-IN BACKYARD. With the home being close to interstate access, bus line, schools, GRAND VIEW UNIVERSITY, and just minutes from DOWNTOWN, the only thing missing is YOU!! Schedule your private showing today so you can envision this home with your magical touch on it.
