Realtor Comments
The property makes a great first impression with a brand-new driveway and sidewalk completed in 2025. Step inside to a spacious living room featuring a sunroom. Just beyond the living room is the formal dining room, offering a great space for meals and entertaining. The kitchen is conveniently located off the dining room and includes a rear entry leading to the side entrance and basement. Downstairs, you’ll find laundry hookups, an additional toilet, and plenty of storage space. Upstairs, a landing leads to a full bathroom. At the front of the home are two tandem bedrooms, while the primary bedroom is situated at the rear of the house. Outside, you’ll appreciate the detached one-stall garage, a metal storage shed, and a nicely sized yard with plenty of room to enjoy. This home offers solid potential and is ready for your personal touches. With a little TLC, it could be transformed into a wonderful place to call home. Property sold as is.ย
