About This Home

As of July 2025

This property, located within the city limits, presents an intriguing opportunity for a cash buyer. Situated within walking distance to the town center, this fixer-upper could be transformed into a valuable rental property with two distinct units. The main house and basement efficiency, each with its own entrance, offer the potential for two separate living quarters. The water, sewer, and electric utilities are already metered for the two residences, streamlining the process for a prospective investor. Being sold AS IS.
