For anyone who appreciates an older house without wanting to take on a long list of immediate projects, 562 Prospect St in Bucyrus offers an appealing combination of vintage character, practical updates, and an unusually well-appointed outdoor space.
Built in 1894, this two-story residence provides 1,320 square feet, three bedrooms, and two bathrooms. Inside, the kitchen has been given additional cabinetry and a quartz sink, while LVP flooring, updated light fixtures, vinyl windows, and generous storage contribute to a more contemporary everyday feel.
A versatile room on the main floor could serve as a home office, hobby room, or potentially a first-floor bedroom. Main-floor laundry is another welcome convenience, keeping one of the most routine household tasks close at hand.
The outdoor space is where this property really opens up. The privacy-fenced backyard is arranged for warm-weather enjoyment, with a 27-foot above-ground pool, covered deck equipped with a fan and TV, gazebo, swing, and storage shed with a lean-to. There is plenty of room for gatherings, leisurely afternoons, or simply enjoying the yard without feeling overlooked.
A covered front porch adds another pleasant spot to sit outside, while the attached one-car garage and covered carport provide additional shelter for vehicles and belongings.
The home’s practical features include central air, forced-air gas heat, two wood burners, and a whole-house water filtration system.
At $198,000, this 1894 Bucyrus home brings together usable space, outdoor amenities, and a long-established house footprint in one package.
