Great opportunity for buyers or investors looking for a winter rehab project. The home’s layout is well thought out and uses the space efficiently. While assessor records reflect two bedrooms, the home currently offers four true bedrooms—two on the main level and two upstairs—adding strong potential value. The home is believed to have a newer foundation, providing a solid starting point for renovations. Home will be sold “as is” and cash only.
