About this home
Single Family · Built 1938 · Historic
The owner calls this her doll house. Cute. Cute. Cute. Mother Hubbard is reported to have been seen baking cookies in the kitchen. This 2 (possible 3) bed home is full of charm and is move-in ready. Possible 3rd bedroom is the den on the main floor (no closet). This home has many new/updated features: New roof in 2016, water heater 2017, replacement vinyl windows, updated electric and bath. Other nice features include wood-burning fireplace perfect for warming a pot of porridge, shower in basement, laundry tub in basement, full fenced back yard, very large 1 car garage with full-size workshop. Sip your morning coffee on the front deck while you take in the beauty of Nelson Park right across the street and you may even catch a glimpse of Lake Decatur in the background. Be sure to see this before Mr. Grimm tells his other friends about it.
