    Great opportunity for a full renovation on a spacious lot in a peaceful setting. This property offers strong potential for a skilled buyer ready to bring it back to life. Interior and exterior updates are needed throughout. The bathroom and kitchen have been fully gutted. Please note: the basement has standing water. The main drain is a horizontal stack that exits through the basement wall.
