About this home
Bring your vision—and your toolbox! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath Southwood home is a true fixer-upper with much of its original character intact. Original hardwood floors, kitchens and baths provide a blank canvas for investors, renovators, or owner-occupants ready to create something of their own. The vintage front door is a standout feature and hints at the charm waiting to be uncovered. The raised-ranch layout offers a 2-car garage, finished basement, and a primary suite with its own en-suite bath. Outside, you’ll find a fenced yard with room to make it your own. Located in the Southwood neighborhood, you’re close to parks and trails. This is a project—but it’s a project with potential.
