About This Home

As of October 2023

This is a really cute two-story home in Wilson schools with a lot of really nice features. The home is being sold as-is but is definitely able to be occupied and enjoyed immediately. The house sits on a corner lot and as you walk up to the house you'll appreciate the cozy front porch. There is also a deck and a porch off of the second floor. Huge bright rooms with lots of windows. There is a large living room, very large dining room and full eat-in kitchen on the main level. The kitchen (and the entire home) has a ton of natural light. There are plenty of cabinets and all the appliances remain. The laundry is conveniently located on the main level along with a 1st floor powder room. There are 3 bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor. The largest bedroom also has an additional space that would make a nice sitting area or more room for furniture. The home has ample storage with a large walk-up attic and full basement. Really cute fenced yard. The home also features a detached 2 car garage and additional off-street parking. Did you notice the taxes on this property? Very, very reasonable. A little paint will go a long way with this one. Great opportunity for a new home or a great rental property.
