## Description

### Agent Description
Affectionately known as "The Stone House," this charming stone bungalow is one of those rare homes that feels tucked away from the world while still offering convenient access to the city. While full of charm and character, this home will require repairs and updating. The list price reflects the opportunity to restore and personalize this unique property. Situated at the end of the street on nearly 1/3 acre, the property is surrounded by mature trees and the peaceful sounds of nature, creating a surprisingly private setting that's hard to find in the city. During the photo session, the Cornell Lab Merlin Bird ID app identified nine different bird species in just 30 minutes-a small glimpse into the natural setting you'll enjoy here. (Bird photos included at the end of the listing photos!) Inside, you'll find 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and 1,127 square feet of character-filled living space. The main-floor bedroom offers convenient accessibility, while the spacious second-floor bedroom spans the length of the home and features extensive built-in storage. Original details remain throughout, including real wood finishes and a vintage kitchen full of charm and possibility. Recent updates include a newer HVAC system, water heater, and breaker box. The unfinished basement provides additional storage space with built-in cabinets. Outside, enjoy a detached garage with room for a vehicle, workshop space, or storage, plus a shed, deck and patio, and a fully fenced yard. Whether you're an investor, renovator, or buyer looking to restore a unique home over time, this distinctive stone bungalow offers character, privacy, and the opportunity to build equity in a location convenient to McCoy Park, Highway 12, and Highway 291.
