HUGE potential in this solid ranch home on the southeast side of Decatur near the lake, zoo, museum, water park, amphitheater, and so much more! The spacious living room and open dining area lead to an enclosed sun porch to enjoy your morning coffee or tea. The kitchen offers tons of cabinetry and all appliances stay. Hardwood floors underneath the carpet waiting to be revealed! Almost all of the windows have been replaced too. Three good-sized bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the main level. Downstairs you'll find a large clean space ready to meet your workshop, hobby, and storage needs. Plus a convenient bathroom for when you don't want to dirty the upstairs one. This home has been lovingly cared for over the years and just needs some cosmetic updates. Situated on a half acre with an attached two-car garage and back patio, this home could be everything you're looking for! Selling as-is. Offers should be submitted by 5:00PM 5/15/23
