This 1910 Craftsman Bungalow represents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity, listed at $749,000—positioned well above the $642,161 Fair Market Value by -16%. While the property requires capital for modernization, its Fair Condition Rating and Finished Attic offer significant value-add potential. The Corner Lot location in the historic French Park neighborhood provides unique curb appeal. This asset is best suited for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants capable of executing strategic renovations to align the property with modern market standards.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
While the home features a remodeled bathroom and is well-maintained, the 1910 structure retains dated elements that place it in the 'Fair' category. The kitchen shows older cabinetry and appliances likely exceeding 20 years, and the presence of a wall heater indicates a lack of modern central HVAC. The finished attic and general systems require minor updates to meet modern standards.
This 1910 Craftsman Bungalow is located in the prestigious French Park historic neighborhood, offering timeless architectural details, a cozy fireplace, and a classic front porch that provides significant curb appeal and vintage charm.
The inclusion of a finished attic provides valuable additional square footage that can serve as a home office, creative studio, or guest retreat, offering flexibility that is rare for homes of this era and size.
Situated on a desirable corner lot, the property benefits from an open, airy feel and enhanced privacy, complemented by the rare convenience of gated off-street parking in a dense historic district.
With only one bathroom to service two bedrooms and the additional attic living space, the home's layout may present logistical challenges for families or those who frequently host guests.
The property is served by local schools with relatively low performance ratings (ranging from 2 to 4), which may impact long-term resale value and appeal to education-focused families.
Welcome to this charming turn-of-the-century Craftsman Bungalow home, built in 1910 and situated on a desirable corner lot in the heart of the historic French Park neighborhood.

Ceiling fans in both the living and dining rooms provide comfort, and the separate laundry area adds everyday convenience. The finished attic offers valuable bonus space ideal for a home office, creative studio, playroom, guest retreat, or additional living area (buyer to verify permitted use). The gated off-street parking provides privacy and convenience, while the corner lot location enhances curb appeal and creates an open, airy feel.
