Redfin agents who toured
- The home needs some tlc. The second opening to the living room was awkwardly blocked off with some shelves. There is also signs of water damage in the basement area. Overall, the home seems to have good bones.14 years ago• May not reflect the current state of the homeRedfin agent • Sales Manager
