Built in1900, this Victorian home is a real gem on Howard St. The curb appeal with the big covered front porch says it all. The home has Vinyl siding, a new roof in 2015 and new windows in 2009. Inside this quality built home you will find Hardwood floors, 9' ceilings, plaster walls and an updated kitchen with newer appliances. There is a pantry area and half bath off of the kitchen area. This home has a very inviting living room and formal dining room off of the foyer entrance. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms. The one bedroom is between two of the front bedrooms and could be used as a big walk-in closet or office. There is also a very large attic for extra storage. The gas hot water heat was new in 2012 and the gas hot water heater was new in 2021. The home also has an upgraded 200 amp electric system and water softener. This home is located in West Lawn and is in Wilson Schools, making it a very sought after property at this price. I did talk to zoning and they said that you can put in a curb cut and add off street parking. I do suggest that the buyer call zoning to verify. The owner has also installed a 6' high white vinyl fence around the back yard.
