Welcome to this 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath two-story that knows it's a work in progress-but in the best way. The room sizes? Generous. The layout? Solid. The potential? Off the charts. In February, 2026, this home just received eight brand-new windows with a lifetime warranty, so you can go ahead and enjoy the view without worrying about drafts, repairs, or regrets. That's future-you saying thank you already. The kitchen is currently... let's call it "creatively makeshift." It functions, it tries its best, and most importantly-it has plenty of space to become the amazing kitchen you're dreaming of once you're ready to roll up your sleeves (or call a contractor). You'll also love the main floor laundry-because hauling baskets up and down stairs is a hard no-and a detached two-car garage ready to protect your vehicles, tools, toys, or secret snack stash. If you're looking for a home with good bones, big rooms, and the chance to add your own style (without paying for someone else's questionable design choices), this one might just be your perfect match.
