Big and roomy with a great view of the river in the winter! This classic home on an historic street in Chester is waiting for a handyman to bring it back to it's full luster. Many important updates have been made already: windows, HVAC, electrical, siding. Roof is approximately 12 years old. The upstairs was formerly an apartment with separate back entrance; It is another full living space with a separate electric meter if you want to supplement your monthly cash flow. The upstairs will need extensive remodeling, so this one is a fixer upper and priced to sell as is! The price on this home for the square footage is amazing! If you like bringing old houses back to life, here's your chance! Call for a showing today!
