About this home

Attractively priced below appraised value, this classic home in the heart of the Ridgeland historic district exudes vintage charm and untapped potential. The grand living room with pocket doors and wood burning fireplace seamlessly transitions into a dining room adorned with original stained glass and woodwork. The kitchen, updated in 2002, leads to a family room and breakfast room addition, creating open and inviting spaces. The unfinished basement presents an opportunity for additional living space or a recreation room. Upstairs, the 5 rooms and 2 full baths are ready for remodeling, offering plenty of promise. The third floor provides additional space for your creative vision. Main roof was replaced in 2007, with a 25 year limited warranty. Rear roof was replaced in 2020. Conveniently located near Ridgeland Commons, schools, the Green line, shops, restaurants, and the farmer's market. Bring your vision and breathe new life into this home. Ideal for those with a keen eye for revitalization and a passion for restoring historic homes.
