Be prepared to fall immediately in love! This home is a show stopper! Let’s begin with the lot- Almost HALF AN ACRE! Can you imagine having such a HUGE lot? Tranquil setting is the ideal escape to relax. The interior has been COMPLETELY remodeled! Feels like a brand new house, but better, because it offers the character/charm of an older home. Refinished hardwood floors w/ a gray stain flow through the living/dining area. Window was removed, & slider added in the dining room. It opens to your new, sizable deck & amazing view of your massive yard! The kitchen offers stainless steal appliances, granite countertops, & subway backsplash. The master is oversized w/ plenty of closet space. Full bath remodel is also stunning after it was totally remodeled! Looking for extra living space? Basement features: OVERSIZED fmly rm, laundry rm, storage area, & even office/workshop space. New roof, gutters, landscaping, & extra concrete parking pad are added benefits. Nothing like this on the market!

Lots of potential here. Home needs TLC but is priced accordingly. LRG for a two bedroom, huge lot. Likely has hardwood floors under carpet. Bring your painter and earn some quick sweat equity! Property being sold in "as-is" condition, without warranty of any kind.
