About This Home

As of November 2021

Loads of early 20th century charm accompany this very unique building, which is currently set up as a 2-unit, but could very easily be converted to a single family dwelling, if desired. The first floor has an open concept with eat-in kitchen, dining room with fireplace, one bedroom with newer full bath and wheelchair-accessible shower; living room with china closet and shelving, plus another fireplace, and floor to ceiling windows. Large laundry room with sink and cabinets, and a rear exit. The basement is about 80% fully-excavated with a newer electric service and gas heater. Access from here to the exterior is via Bilco doors. The second level has a galley kitchen with a gas stove, four bedrooms, full bath with leg tub, plus powder room, and a huge walk-up attic for plenty of storage. First floor was last rented around 2020 and the second level was last rented around 2017. Inspections are welcomed, but property is being sold "as-is" and the seller will make no repairs. Please note the water has been shut off due to the hot water heater leaking. Also in addition to the dwelling, there's a huge rear barn with second level. The first level is currently being rented. Financing should be cash or conventional with greater than 20% down. Please note that all numbers, dimensions, and measurements shown herein are approximations only. Buyer should ascertain to satisfy self. All showings MUST follow COVID-19 guidelines. No more than three (3) persons total, one of which is the agent, are permitted inside the building at a time. It is mandatory that masks be worn by every person entering the building.
