This two bedroom ranch needs renovation but offers many possibilities. The spacious living room has a huge window providing lots of natural light, there is also a brick fireplace with mantle. Hardwood flooring is in this room and the adjacent dining room with lovely views of the trees in back. The kitchen has room to eat-in and a door that opens to the carport. Two bedrooms with hardwood flooring and a hall bath with tile floor complete the main level. A family room is located in the lower level plus there is a utility room with washer/dryer hookup and space for storage. A door leads to the back yard. This home is in a lovely location and ready to be brought back to life.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
