A Classic Brick Front
From the street, the house has a red-brick front with a white columned porch and steps up from the sidewalk. It sits along a row of other older brick homes on Cabanne Ave.
Inside: Refurbished With Two Fireplaces
The listing calls the home refurbished. You walk in through a stained-wood front door into a spacious entry with a staircase. The main floor has an open living and dining layout, separated by a pony wall.
There are two fireplaces, including one with a stone-clad surround that stands out in the photos. The floors in the main rooms and bedrooms are luxury vinyl plank, per the listing, so the look is updated rather than original-period.
Kitchen and Baths
The kitchen has white cabinets and new stainless appliances, according to the listing. The main floor also has laundry and a half bath.
Upstairs, the primary suite has its own bathroom with a separate shower, a soaker tub and a double vanity. There are two more bedrooms and a hall bath. The bathrooms have ceramic tile.
Outside and Systems
Out back, there is a fully fenced yard and a 2-car garage with new doors. The home has central air and forced-air heating, with public water and sewer. Zillow showed 2025 property taxes of $744.
There is also a basement with walk-up access. The listing does not say whether any of it is finished, so ask before assuming extra living space.
Things to Check
- The listing says a list of upgrades is available on request. Ask for it, since it is not included on Zillow.
- Get a full inspection, as you would with any house over 100 years old.
- Confirm the basement condition and use.
- Zillow showed flood zone X (minimal risk) via First Street; still check with your insurer.
- Zillow did not show a Zestimate for this home.
The Bottom Line
At $259,900, this 1905 brick home offers three bedrooms, two and a half baths, two fireplaces, an updated kitchen and baths, a fenced yard and a 2-car garage. It has been on the market a while and the price has dropped twice, which may interest buyers looking for a refurbished older home in the city. As always, visit in person and verify every detail before you decide.
