    Please RSVP! Agents, please attend with your buyers. Located in East Flatbush on a tree-lined block with other well-maintained homes is this semi-detached one-family colonial home. The first floor features a large foyer with plenty of windows, and flows into a bright and spacious living room with Taj Mahal motif wall mirrors. Right beyond the original archway is a bright and spacious formal dining room. Just beyond is a huge modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, wood cabinetry, a half bath, and direct access to the semi-finished basement with laundry room (Washer & Dryer negotiable), a full bathroom, utilities and plenty of recreation & storage space. Off the kitchen there's also direct access to/from the quaint backyard. Upstairs features three generous bedrooms, (two large and one small), and a full bathroom with window. This home offers several original hardwood floors that can use some refinishing to bring out the natural beauty. There's also some ceramic and vinyl tile floors. Enjoy your own private access way that leads to a huge enclosed shed, and the rear of property with a separate entrance to basement. Additionally, this home offers several other great features. First the home has a well maintained exterior with security doors on both front and back of house and a security system (for a fee). The front exterior steps are newer and has handrails on both sides. The pavement on side of house was recently repaved and has newer siding. You won't need to worry about installing new windows because the home offers new windows throughout, a newer roof and, SOLAR PANELS (may need to take over lease), to save on your electric bills!!! Also, this home is equipped with Verizon FIO's. All that's needed is TLC and a great family to make it their home. This is an accessible location with several options for public transportation and shopping. The seller is interested in a strong offer and can close quickly! The home will be delivered vacant.
