Welcome Home! If you are looking for affordable, easy living, this East Forest Park home is for you. This quaint, expandable cape features 2 good sized bedrooms with hardwood floors, an updated bathroom, partially finished basement and much more. Kitchen needs some cosmetics, but this home has great bones and the furnace is less than a year old (October 2025). The walk-up attic could be finished for additional living/work space or potentially another bedroom or bath! The yard is landscaped nicely, although it is difficult to see through all the snow. It is conveniently located on a quiet side street, yet only minutes to shopping, restaurants and Forest Park. OPEN HOUSE CANECELED, highest and best by 8pm 2/8!
