Sweet home for sale in need of a little love! While this home is selling "as is" and this gem may look a bit rough, it is move-in-ready really. It would like new flooring throughout, paint on inside, a power wash on exterior and maybe some paint there too. A new deck would be nice - it has nice privacy and view behind - and perhaps a new A/C condensor unit. BUT, seller tells me everything works - all appliances, heat, water heater, even the A/C! The roof was replaced about a year ago. Several windows were replaced in recent years, but not all. The main level bonus / family room is on its own heating system (electric baseboard), so great for a workout room or special needs space. Home is priced accordingly. Bring your best offer! Seller has stated will not look at any offers until Monday, May 11 at earliest.
