Step back in time with this charming 1900-built home featuring 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Currently tenant-occupied on a month-to-month lease, the tenant would love the opportunity to stay but is also willing to vacate if needed — giving flexibility for both investors and homeowners. This property is a wonderful opportunity to expand your investment portfolio with steady rental potential, or to purchase a historic home and add your own updates, creativity, and charm. With its character and possibilities, this home is ready for someone to reimagine its next chapter. (Please note: Photos are from prior to tenant occupancy).
