Realtor Comments
The owner states that new gas lines have also been installed. HVAC: Two mini-split heating and air units provide efficient, zoned heating and cooling. The interior features a large living room and spacious bedrooms, and the bathroom has been updated. The laundry room is large and currently features a pet door; the seller has a new replacement door and intends to install it. The kitchen is compact and positioned between the living room and a bonus room. It may be worthwhile to consult a contractor about opening it up to the adjacent rooms. Additional features include a 16′ x 21′ metal storage shed with wood floors, a large fenced yard, and a covered front concrete porch that expands the usable living space outdoors. Please note the following items: The interior is generally nice, but some minor finishing work is needed. Also, the floors are not perfectly level throughout the house. Finally, there is a storm shelter on the property, but it has not been opened recently, and its watertight status is unknown.
