About 626 E 51st St

This might be the affordable home you are looking for. Located in the McKinley area, just a short jump to I-5, or easily head toward Hwy 512 by hitting the back way. The garage/shop has alley access. Fenced backyard for your 4-Leggers. Roof appears to have plenty of life left. Small porch leads into the living area then the kitchen. Ample storage and laundry area. This house needs some improvements, and not a lot of square footage here, but how many homes in this real estate market are just $290,000? This is a good opportunity, take a look.
