Come be a part of bringing this storybook cottage to life! With a little renovation, this home could be the perfect fit for a new family starting out or an ideal investment property for rental income.
Just minutes from the New River, shopping, groceries, and medical facilities, the location couldn’t be more convenient. Inside, you’ll find 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, a kitchen, dining room, living room, and a laundry room that could easily be converted into a second bathroom. Comes complete with original hardwood floors. Upstairs offers additional space that could be transformed into a large bedroom or flex area, while the basement provides even more potential.
The spacious parcel of land allows room for outdoor enjoyment—or even the possibility of adding a smaller home. City water and sewer are available, adding to the property’s value and convenience.
