Discover charm in this 1968-built home-four beds, two baths, 2269 square feet of flexible space on half an acre. Upstairs hardwood flows throughout, the main floor features a large kitchen ready for updating and has hardwoods through out as well, the basement's your canvas for man-cave dreams. Walk out from family room into large privacy fenced backyard. Plenty of room for your pets or kids. Dual three-car garages-one attached, one detached-great for toys or workshop. Fenced yard, mature trees, Milo charm. Endless potential. . Priced at assessed value which is $20,000 under Zillow estimate. I am listing it "as is" at this time, I have 3 projects going currently and if I finish the other two before it sells, I'll send in my team to update from its current rental property state. Then I will adjust the price upward to reflect the work performed. I have considered turning it into a duplex there's just so many possibilities with this property!
