Public Remarks: A diamond in the rough and an excellent buy! It wouldn't take much to make this home a showplace. This stone ranch has a spacious living room with fireplace & wonderful view from the picture window. You'll find three nice size bedrooms and great closet space. Some years ago there was an addition, making the kitchen eat-in area quite large and separate from the work station. Along with this addition, you'll find a closet in the bedroom that could easily be made into an additional 1/2 bath. There is hardwood floors beneath the carpet in the original part of the house. The basement has a 12x12 room that was used as a workshop along with two additional rooms and the laundry area. There is plenty of storage area. Wait until you see this garage! There is a 24x24, 11 block high 2 car garage with a 15x24 addition that would be great for a workshop or additional vehicle storage (with a little modification). The yard is large with a gorgeous oak tree. This is an excellent opportunity to move into a wonderful neighborhood. The owner is offering a 1 yr buyers' warranty through First American with a $55.00 service fee.
