Located in the desirable University Terrace area, this centrally located home offers a wonderful combination of character, thoughtful updates, and investment potential. Featuring 3 bedrooms on the main level, original oak hardwood floors, an updated kitchen and bathrooms, and vinyl double-pane windows, this property has plenty to offer. An additional 1,135 square feet of basement space features 2 rooms currently utilized as bedrooms, a full bathroom, a separate living room, laundry room, and abundant storage.
