VA and FHA ready! The wood on the windows is to protect the windows for the new owner. The wrap around porch feels like an oasis in the city already. There is a small lot dedicated to parking. The backyard, with a wooden fence for privacy, is an entire city lot with access to Forrest Street in the back. The entire first floor was taken to the studs and built with drywall and electrical components. All 12 foot ceilings have inset lighting. The kitchen has new cabinets, counter, sink and plumbing. The bathroom is large and beautiful! There are many ways to decide how to use the front two rooms. The first room off of the kitchen can be a living room, or dining room with the front room as the living room, or a first floor bedroom with the front room as a foyer leading to the front with the wrap around porch. Or, the front room can be an office with it's own independent entrance and doors. There are many options.
