Late 50's Ranch. Good condition & finishes. Standard floorplan that counts on the basement for FR space. Super clean. Though it backs onto a branch of the River the home itself is not in the flood plain though much of the lot is. Lot extends to east...
side of River. Easy walk to Marianos & Clarkson Park.
