This bungalow is a sweet starter home! Cute as a button, clean as a whistle. There are 2 bedrooms and a beautiful, cozy sun room, over sized kitchen, dining room and living room. Hardwood floors, one car garage and a backyard fire pit. City gas, water and sewer. Nice location, close to school, downtown, RT 78, and I-95, minutes to the beach. Walk to shopping, schools, churches, quaint eateries, Wilcox Park, the Colonial Theater and more. Great location to start a family or just "hang your hat" for summer months, year round or investment. Recent inspections remedied items of concern. Rear Lot has its own separate driveway and is maintained by rear lot owner.
