Remodeled 2 bedroom with master bedroom and walk-in closet. New kitchen, new paint, new flooring throughout. First floor laundry. Updated plumbing, updated electrical service, new water line to home, new roof. New AC compressor July 2020.
This property will need a little more than TLC to make a very nice home. There is an enclosed front porch that can add SF to the living space. The basement has some finish but requires a little rehab and cleaning. Newer furnace and water heater, windows. This is a nice neighborhood to raise your kids. Don't wait to long to see this one.
