Vintage Victorian in Sycamore needing TLC but at an AFFORDABLE PRICE! This 4 Bedroom "Painted Lady" is enhanced by the architectural detail of it's era and retains the beauty of yesteryear with an open staircase, stained glass and beveled windows, volume ceilings and natural woodwork.

All 4 spacious bedrooms are on the 2nd floor complete with walk-in closets and there is a full bath on each level! This home features some important updates such as the furnace, roof (approx 10 yrs), electric panel, and sewer line to the street, but still "needs some LOVE" from it's next owner. Convenient first floor laundry is an added plus. Deep lot with deck provides a comfy place to relax, tons of garden space, and room for a playset or firepit. 2-car detached garage, shared driveway and excellent location with easy access to downtown Sycamore, restaurants, shopping and all the "go-to" places on Sycamore Road! Bring your ideas, sweat equity, and make this home shine again! Priced according to condition and sold "as is" - You don't want to miss this great opportunity!
