Some of us love that small town life. And it doesn't get much more small town than buying a home on Main St., Palo! Although the address is Main St., if you come look, stand outside for awhile. It's pretty quiet, pretty peaceful. This home is sold on double lot, almost 4/10 of an acre, and 240 feet deep. Home has a bit more space than many ranches of it's era, with 1150 square feet on the main, and a dry basement with some potential if someone was so inclined. Another nice touch, laundry is on the main floor, although there are still hookups downstairs if you want the space. Roof is five years old and furnace is eight years old. Formal dining room, if you are looking for that sort of space. The numbers would likely work to make this a successful investment property, but if you see yourself hanging out on the back deck and patio, grilling burgers, and getting to know your neighbors, this might be your spot!
