This is a four bedroom/two bath fixer on the Westside. Cook is a nice side street that gets little traffic. The house itself has a great floor plan with attached two car garage and two very large bedrooms that are separate from the other two. There is lots of potential here. Pest Report and Physical Inspection Report are available. Check the documents tab.
