2017 sq. ft. semi‑detached home on a quiet dead‑end street, offering excellent rehab potential. Occupied as recently as 2 months ago, this 5‑bedroom home needs full renovation. All bedrooms are private (no walk-throughs) and nicely sized, including two on the third floor that will require heat. The home has one bathroom with a tub only. The kitchen is where this property's potential truly lies, offering a great layout, plentiful wood cabinets that can be refinished, and abundant natural light. New counters, appliances, flooring, and paint will dramatically improve the space at a modest cost. Additional features include a welcoming front porch, a lush green backyard with potential to add an off‑street parking spot, and appliances that remain (refrigerator, washer, and dryer). Super low property taxes make this an even more attractive investment opportunity. The gas hot water heater appears newer, and the forced‑air oil furnace seems to have been installed in 2011 — installation dates are not confirmed and are based solely on information found in the home. This property offers size, character, and a solid foundation for renovation — an excellent opportunity for investors or buyers looking to create a home tailored to their vision. Home being sold AS-IS, no repairs or improvements will be made. Buyer will assume the cost for any and all municipal required repairs.
