This 1929 Colonial home, situated on an expansive 94 x 208 lot, offers endless possibilities for a creative fixer-upper. Embrace the potential to restore and customize this home to your unique vision, turning it into your dream residence. The circular front drive provides practical parking, but the property requires substantial updates to regain its former glory. Inside, you'll find 3,650 sq. ft. of living space, including 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms. The kitchen, living room, and dining area lack modern amenities and will demand considerable attention. While the location is convenient to schools and parks, this home presents a fixer-upper opportunity, ideal for buyers seeking a renovation challenge.
