  1. Very cute! A little lacking in the vintage charm dept, but the bathrooms are kitchen are perfectly usable as is. A few weekends of serious painting (esp. if you hate the wood paneling) and you’re all set. I actually really like it. Forest Glen is peaceful and charming, though there’s not much to do there.

  2. Is Forrest Glen a suburb or is it within city limits?

  3. Within city limits — northwest side, near Sauganash.

  4. I definitely think this is a cute little home, even if I am not a fan of the upstairs bedrooms.

    I’d choose this in a heartbeat over the home in Galewood for the same price.

  5. This is a very pretty area and a good neighborhood in which to raise a family. The price seams reasonable. It’s difficult to find a house with three full bathrooms at this price point… Many houses in the area only have 1.5 baths, which seemed to be standard when these houses were built.

  8. I like it. But there are lots of cute, reasonably-priced homes around here, if you’re ok with Farnsworth and aren’t restricting yourself to Onahan or Norwood (or obviously Oriole, Edgebrook, Wildwood etc).
