About This Home

As of November 2022

Fixer upper brick ranch home in Riverview Park. This cute home sits in a really nice spot. Tucked away on Birch St. but close to the river, parks, and Rt 61, as well as all conveniences. Large living room that leads to a large eat-in kitchen. Huge full basement. The heat was converted to economical gas at some point. Three bedrooms and a hall bath. Living room and bedrooms all have oak flooring. There is a main floor laundry and an attached 1-car garage. HUGE lot that is perfect for outdoor enjoyment and entertaining. This one needs an overhaul but will be a very nice home when complete.
