About This Home

As of October 2020

This home needs a little love on the inside to make it as cute as it is on the outside!! Great lot with a detached 2-car garage. The walk-out basement is partially finished and has a shower, so you could add to it for a full bath. There are both front and rear screened porches. Additional storage can be found in the walk-up attic. The living room has an inviting wood burning fireplace and the spacious kitchen will fit a table and chairs comfortably. The heat is oil, but there is natural gas at the house. Water heater is gas. Property being sold strictly AS-IS. No FHA or VA as sellers are not able to make any repairs. NOTE: Sellers are not sure if the damage to rear porch ceiling is from an issue with the porch roof or the skylights.
