Main home has long-covered front porch for enjoying the quiet and views of trees, large living/great room with wood fireplace, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, den/office, sunroom/rec room. Main home needs updating all around or complete remodel. Great property for entertaining inside and out. Plenty of off-street parking.
