Edge of town, three bedrooms, three baths, and loads of potential here! This 70's split foyer property has great bones and the potential to be a fantastic home. There is an open plan kitchen, dining space and living room. There are three decent sized bedrooms on the main level; one, with en suite bath. Downstairs, the family room has been divided into two non-conforming bedrooms which could easily be re-converted to a living space. There is also another third bath in the lower level, which leads to the double tuck-under garage. Backyard deck.
