Charming home with great curb appeal in a peaceful, tucked-away location. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath ranch offers a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking to build equity with a little TLC. With some updates and vision, this home has the potential to shine once again. Enjoy a beautifully landscaped front and backyard-ideal for nature lovers and gardening enthusiasts. No backyard neighbors means added privacy and a quiet setting. Inside, the family room features laminate flooring and flows into a fully applianced kitchen with a bright bay window overlooking the lush yard. Ceramic tile runs through the kitchen, bath, and laundry areas for easy maintenance. The centrally located laundry room offers convenient backyard access, and the full bath features dual entry points. A walk-in pantry near the kitchen adds great storage. All three bedrooms have laminate flooring and lovely views of either the front or backyards. An oversized attached two-car garage provides ample space for vehicles, tools, and toys. Two backyard sheds offer even more storage. The outdoor space was once a true oasis-and with a little love, it can be again. Home is part of an estate and is being sold strictly as-is, where-is. The executor believes the roof and mechanicals are less than 10 years old. Conveniently located near schools, shopping, medical offices, recreational facilities, and with quick interstate access this is a great opportunity to make homeownership dreams a reality.
