2241 and 1/2 W. 24th ST

Today's open: 2 - 5 pm.

Things wrong with 2241 and 1/2 W. 24th ST:

1. There isn't a lot of work to do.
Admittedly, the major systems (electric, plumbing, roof, heating/cooling) all have been replaced, floors have been refinished, most appliances and fixtures are new.

2. It's a bad house for an exhibitionist.
Granted, the setting is very private, positioned in the rear of a deep lot, nearly hidden from the street.

3. The kitchen is too big.
Buyers looking for a narrow galley-style kitchen might be deterred by an eat-in workspace greater than 200 square feet.


4. It's under priced.
Offered at $489,000 it is the least expensive house in either Kinney or Western Heights, the two neighborhoods that straddle the 10 freeway, between Arlington and Western.

5. The lot is worthy of animals, consumed by greenery.
I concede.
