WHAT AN OPPORTUNITY! This sweet little house might seem tiny, but get inside and you will see that there are lots of ways to live under it's newer roof! Walk through the front door and into the much-loved mud room--where there is plenty of room for coats, boots and sports equipment.The open floor plan with the living room and kitchen functioning as one, large room, and are bright and sunny. Two ample bedrooms and a family bath finish off the first floor. In the lower lever you will find a few more additional rooms that could serve as bedrooms, bonus rooms or offices. This is where you will find the laundry and another kitchen. This whole package is perched on the banks of Lake Quinsigamond--and offers a dock and water access, there is a steep grade down to the water, but this could be improved upon by the next owner. The lot is very large and also offers a detached garage, which will need some work but could offer additional storage or work space. Convenient location near everything
