About This Home

As of July 2020

Bring your tool belt and paint brush. This home could shine with a little sweat and fresh ideas. Relax on your large covered porch and enjoy the shade given by the beautiful mature trees. Nice size rooms and one floor living. The basement is unfinished, but has enough height to use the space for so many things. The roof and heater are in great shape. The detached over-sized two car garage is ideal for the car hobbyist. All of this in a friendly Wilson schools neighborhood that is close to all major conveniences.
