This home includes two bedrooms, one with a private balcony overlooking the river, one bathroom, and a laundry room that can be converted back to a second bath if needed. A separate family room provides versatile space for a bonus room or extra sleeping area. Enjoy the outdoors from the covered, south-facing wrap-around porch on the generous 0.95-acre lot. You’ll love the balance of town convenience and tranquil living, plus the festive sights and sounds of the Polar Express during the holiday season just across the river! This fairly priced home has some projects to complete, but it is your opportunity to make it your own!
