Don't miss out on this charming all brick, 2 bedroom, one bath home with a full basement. Walk in and feel the cozy character of the home. The Knotty pine Den and hardwood floors throughout are stunning. (The Trustee believes there might also be hardwood under the huge carpeted living room and hallway.) The eat-in-kitchen is comfortable with plenty of windows and newer solid surface countertops. Walk out the back to a large backyard and a screened-n-porch for the evenings of relaxing. If a one car attached garage is not enough there is plenty of room to add a detached garage coming in from the back alley access. Basement is unfinished for you to finish as you wish. New boiler installed in 2025. Clean radiant heat in the ceiling, floors and even the basement floor! You can't go wrong with the location of only one house over from Lindenthal and close to the schools, parks and public swimming pool. Home is in an estate and family wishes to do not repairs. Selling As Is.
