What's special

Main floor bedroomWood burning fireplace

Imagine yourself in this adorable cottage style home with main floor bedroom and bath as well as 2 more bedrooms and bath on the second floor. This home is waiting for your personal touch in the shadow of Brucemore Mansion. The floors are incredible on the main with a wood burning fireplace to keep you warm in the winter. Nice back yard to enjoy music nights at Brucemore and beautiful sunrises. This home needs some love, yet the kitchen has been updated and the roof is only 5 years old.
