This cottage in Bridgeport is a perfect little starter house. I love the leaded windows on the front that are just begging for some lush flower boxes.
The house is in great condition with an open floor plan, fresh paint and new floors. The kitchen is huge considering it's a smaller home, and looks very warm and clean. Besides the affordable price, it makes a great starter home because it's the perfect balance of having "projects" to do without requiring an immediate overwhelming overhaul.
Back outside, there's a sunny backyard and big deck. It's also pretty close to the red line, so commuting downtown will be fast and easy. Bridgeport is an adorable, family-friendly neighborhood, surprisingly quiet for how close it is to downtown. It's also one of the few neighborhoods that contains a huge arts center, a huge park, and a sports arena all within a few blocks of each other. Listings don't come up in this area very often.
2 beds, 1 bath, $275k. Somebody buy this house!
