About This Home

As of July 2025

This 2 bedroom, 1 bath brick & aluminum 1 1/2 story home built in 1939 is being sold “AS IS” - this is an estate sale & a short sale & a reverse mortgage - the seller won’t make any repairs to the home or the garage - so don’t ask. This property has deferred maintenance from peeling lead based paint to a tarp covering a broken basement bilco door which leaks, a clearly water damaged basement, a leaky roof in multiple locations, carpeted floors, a dated full bath & lead based paint peeling ceilings in the kitchen. Gas radiator boiler in the bsmt appears to be original to home. Use caution on front porch as the concrete is failing & porch supports are rusted. Front door does not operate - door knob is broken - must use side door. DANGER: Do not walk on the blue tarp on the rear deck - the deck is not safe. Kitchen window has plastic covering - do not remove - window has a problem. Plexi-glass covering the casement windows on gable end of the home to reduce water flowing into the bsmt when it rains - do not operate bsmt casement windows. Water logged pool table in the bsmt will not be removed by seller. Listing agent has not tested for mold in the bsmt - enter at own risk.
