About This Home

As of March 2025

Very unique 3 BD/1 bth home situated on a large corner lot. Main level, ordinary floor plan with extraordinary opportunities for change. Current access to the basement is through the attached garage but the main level floor plan can offer several options to install a new access directly from inside the home. Garage and basement floors are dirt leaving the option for you to cover with concrete. This is definitely a diamond in the rough needing some TLC, but the opportunities are broad. This could be an amazing forever home or extraordinary investment. Seller is willing to give an allowance to the buyer of up to $5,000 for repairs or upgrades to the home.
