Beautifully situated on a private 3-acre lot near the scenic Rainbow Reservoir area, this ranch-style home offers incredible potential. With some renovation and personal touches, this property can truly shine. The main level features two spacious bedrooms, a fireplaced living room, and an eat-in kitchen perfect for everyday living. Additional highlights include an oversized attached two-car garage, a flexible family room or den space, and a finished basement offering extra living or recreation area. Major updates include an updated natural gas furnace and water heater, along with the convenience of public water and sewer. Ideally located with easy access to major highways and Bradley International Airport, this property combines privacy with accessibility. The in-ground pool will need to be filled in and is being sold as-is, along with the house, offering the opportunity to restore it or reimagine it to fit your vision.
