About 261 Dana St
Property Status: Active Step through the front door and feel it--space, light, and that quiet moment when you realize you've just found a place that fits. You can almost see yourself arranging furniture, hearing laughter drift from room to room, and feeling at ease knowing everything you need is right here. Welcome to 261 Dana Street, a bright and generously sized three-bedroom one-bath half-double home designed for real living. The living room stretches wide and open, inviting you to settle in and stay awhile. The dining area flows naturally from it, creating the perfect setting for long dinners or weekend coffee that lingers longer than planned. As you walk through, notice how every room seems to invite you to imagine your life unfolding here--the morning rush made easier, the evenings that feel unhurried. The kitchen gives you space to move, create, and share, with plenty of light that makes even weekday meals feel special. Upstairs, the bedrooms offer privacy and calm--each one a blank canvas for how you want to live. And then there's location--the heartbeat of Wilkes-Barre just minutes away. Whether you're heading to King's College, Wilkes University, Mohegan Sun Arena, or downtown's restaurants and shops, everything is close enough to make life simple. You can picture yourself finishing the day and being home before the coffee cools. The secret to this home isn't just in its square footage--it's in the feeling of having room to breathe. The kind of space that reminds you how good it feels to stretch out, settle in, and start something new. Office Phone: (570) 818-5040 Copyright © 2026 Greater Scranton Board of Realtors MLS.
