Realtor Comments
Main floor of home features a foyer with an open staircase, formal living and dining areas, kitchen/dining area, bedroom, large full bath, laundry facilities, and ample storage/work space (could be finished if additional living space is needed). Upstairs, you will find three generously sized additional bedrooms. Property also features a partial basement, covered front porch, and a two-car detached garage. Seeking a small-town fixer upper with great interior as well as exterior space at a low price? Opportunity knocks! Due to condition of property, this will need to be a cash purchase only.
