On a quiet cobblestone street in Dayton’s beloved Belmont neighborhood, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow offers the kind of opportunity that savvy buyers and DIY dreamers watch for. Inside, a surprisingly spacious layout unfolds with a single living room that connects easily to the open dining area and updated kitchen — a setup that’s ideal for both everyday living and future entertaining. The home features vintage touches like original trim, tall windows, and high ceilings. A large laundry/mudroom off the kitchen adds bonus function. The covered front porch invites slow mornings and friendly chats, and the detached 2-car garage with alley access provides solid utility. Yes, the roof will need replacing, and the home would benefit from cosmetic updates — but that’s the beauty of it. Whether you’re a first-time buyer ready to earn some sweat equity, an investor growing your portfolio, or someone with vision and tools, this property has the bones and location to reward the effort. Currently tenant-occupied at $1,200/month through January, it also offers immediate rental income while you plan next steps. Here’s your chance to own a classic Belmont home with character, flexibility, and potential in all the right places.
