3 bedrooms on almost a half acre under 200?! Here's a chance to earn a little sweat equity! Most of the work has been done, and with some minor cosmetics you could comfortably add significant value! Move in condition, with new carpet in the bedrooms. Listed at 50k below its last sale and potential for some basement finish with an extra bath started downstairs. Great location on a quiet street with an oversized yard. Don't expect this one to be available for long!
