Property details

About 929 W Governor St

Picture this. First floor has living room, dining room, kitchen and a bedroom with attached full bath. 2nd floor was once a separate apartment but it was vacant too long and lost it's variance. So it has a large bedroom and what I'd describe as another 2 room bedroom suite (see dimensions for dressing room and 3rd bedroom). What was going to be a kitchen would be perfect as a laundry room and is plumbed with water line and drain. And of course another full bath on 2nd floor. Numerous ways to utilize the space but at the moment you have to remove the boarded door to the 2nd floor to get to the upstairs or use the outside entrance. Many recent updates, freshly painted and nice size backyard. Close to transportation and downtown. Inspections welcome but selling as is.
