This adorable one-story cottage built in 1940 is just waiting for someone to bring it back to life and call it HOME! Complete with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, it would make a great starter home. This home needs some TLC, but is a diamond in the rough. There is a second building on the property 20 x 14 in size (two story), complete with electric and plumbing, that would make a great workshop, mancave, or maybe could even be an apartment for additional income, with a little additional work. Large fenced in corner lot is .35 acre, and just down the street from the brand new school!
