This is a beautiful, original, and well-maintained home that has been loved for 56 years. It is a great home for first-time home buyer and investment property (or long-term rental). 5811 Brush Road has brick exterior, 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathroom, and approximately 1,126 square feet. The finished basement includes a full bar, multiple storage closets, a half bath, washer and dryer, and open space to watch television and relax. The first floor has a nice size living room, kitchen, pantry, and access to a deck. The second floor has 3 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, and linen closet. The roof was repaired three years ago, a new electrical box was installed two years ago, and the gas company insures the radiant heaters and hot water tank. The details about the current insurance plan are available upon request once an offer has been submitted and the home uses natural gas. There have been no pets to ever live at the property and the carpet is original. It has been well maintained due to the current owner who removes shoes upon entering the home. Easy to show and it is priced to sell as is. Any inspections are for general purposes only and the owner will not make any improvements.
