Bring your tool belt and restore this Palmyra property to it's rightful glory! With nothing but open views across the street, the sunsets will be hard to beat. Stroll down the single lane driveway to a large detached two car garage/shop with a sidewalk leading to the back door of this unique barn-style home with a cape cod layout. On the main level, there is a den in the rear, previously used as a laundry room with an added powder room. Also on the main level is the kitchen, living room and 2 bedrooms, which all appear to have original hardwood floors underneath the carpet. At the top of the stairs is a loft room which could make a nice office space, leading to the main bathroom and the third bedroom. This property is in need of some repair but is well worth the expense for the buyer who is able to turn this house into a home again. * * * * * Sellers have requested for the property to be active on the market for at least 10 days. * * * * * Offer Deadline is Saturday February 17th at 12 noon. * * * * Being sold in "as is" condition.
