About this home

This house features 4 upstairs bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with one being upstairs. The house will need cosmetic adjustments, but beyond that lies the potential: much of the house has wood floors beneath the carpets and flooring; there is a beautiful set of pocket doors that separate the dining room from the living room; a fancy gas fireplace adorns the living room; and there is a classic stairway in the foyer. The house includes both front and back enclosed porches, and the attached L-shaped garage adds convenience to your living. Come check out this listing to see if it would fit your needs.
