Sweet cape cod on a wonderful lot. Home is dated but has good bones. Enjoy 2 upper-level bedrooms (one doesn't have a closet, but the other has multiple. ) The main level homes bedroom 1, a full bath with tile, a living room with wood floors, dining room with wood floors, and a spacious kitchen with a side exit onto a cozy screened porch. The basement is unfinished and is great for storage or would be a great space to finish and add in more living space. The heat pump for cool and heat. Lot is being cut off of a larger portion and has orange markers on the corners. The exterior just needs a fresh coat of paint to bring it back to life. This home is ready to be loved again!
