Inside the home
This 1936 Paris home covers 3,519 sq ft across three floors plus a partially finished basement with its own separate entrance. The layout is genuinely spacious — five bedrooms, four bathrooms, a front family room, formal living and dining rooms, and a rear kitchen with cherry shaker cabinets and stainless appliances. The house is honest about its age. The main floor bathroom is fully intact 1940s original — pink and mint tile, hex floors, arched shower alcove. The third-floor attic suite needs floor refinishing. The rear yard is large and flat but unimproved. Driveways are cracked. These are known quantities in a home of this era. The detached double garage, oversized rear driveway, and separate basement entrance give the property flexibility that most lots in this price range won't offer. The bones are solid; the work is visible and priceable.
