This charming older home is in the heart of Hampden. Solid home that just needs some TLC and brought back to life. Nice sized kitchen with patio doors that open to the back deck. Kitchen also has a cozy propane heat stove for those cold winter days. Large dining room leads to two, yes two bright and sunny living rooms. Two staircases lead to 2nd floor where you will find 3 bedrooms and a full bath. This home is very livable as is but would be stunning with some updates and TLC. Home sits on over a half acre and back yard is very private.
