Tonight I'm looking at Uptown condos and intown living in Dilworth. First the condo's. There is a solid selection, so this week I'm looking at the under 230K, 2 bedroom market. The ideal first home for a young professional, perhaps taking a roomate to offset some of the mortgage. With its convenient in-town location, you won't be paying for parking.
Tonight's winner: this condo is located in the First Ward and has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, at just over 960 sf. This is a penthouse with spectacular city views, 10' ceilings, granite, hardwood floors and more. All appliances are included and the list price is 227,000... we'd try around 214,000 and see what we get back. You'll have to go considerably out South Blvd for a better value.
In Dilworth I was shopping for single families under 500K. Dilworth was the city's first suburb, built from around 1900-1925. The homes are being rebuilt, for the 2nd and 3rd time. Price ranges run from 350K for something in need of remodelling, o well over $1M for larger fully remodeled homes.
Tonight' winner Has 1976 sf, 3 bedrooms and 2 and one half baths. It is a complete house, with deck , yard and porch on one of the 2 or 3 best streets in Dilworth. Walk to the trolley, walk to downtown Dilworth, this house is convenient, and priced right at $500,000. Still, an offer of 475 makes sense, and see where it takes us. Larger homes have sold on this street for over 1M this year. The photo is a typical bungalow style Dilworth house.
As always, I represent buyers, and in the interest of fairness, none of these recommendations are my listings, and as such MLS rules prohibit use of pictures. E mail me for more information at Terry (at) TerryMcDonaldRE.com. My recommendations are based on square foot and asking price, community amenities and my knowledge of the area-- your opinion would likely vary, and further investigation would be required. See you next week!
