Realtor Comments
Owner has invested in keeping the property in good condition and offers the buyer a chance to own as their own personal residence or continue as investment property. One bedroom and full bath and laundry on main level and two bedrooms on the upper story with full bathroom which needs a good plumber to make it operational. A cute front porch to enjoy your evenings and a sunny south deck to get in your rays and Vitamin D!
