    What's special

    This is a solid house (the inspector was impressed overall) needing a new kitchen, bathroom, cosmetics, some floor refinishing, wiring upgrades, etc. Some work has been done: a new flat roof was installed in 2009, but the interior water damage was never repaired, the Crown hot water heater was installed in 2009, the electric panel has been upgraded to 200 amp and two new windows were installed in the kitchen. The oak floors are in good condition, but refinishing them would make them stunning. The seller is providing a US Inspect home inspection and termite inspection report (no termites, previous treatment) and the results of a radon test (1.6 and 1.3 in basement; .8 in living room). This is a 1600 sq. ft. stone and brick row home on a pretty boulevard block. It's perfect for a handy buyer who can fix up while living there or for an investor who wants to do a high quality rehab and push the prices up (highest price on the block is $225,000). There are original doors in the garage that were used to separate the sunroom and living room, plus an original swinging kitchen door. Other features include: steel entry door with oval leaded glass window, ceiling fans, decorative fireplace, chair rails, bay window in dining room, French doors with mullioned mirrors leading into dining room and kitchen, newer GE gas stove and Samsung refrigerator, wall of built-in book shelves in living room, spindle staircase, 8 x 9 bathroom with newer plumbing under floor and opaque windows (plenty of room for a luxurious bathroom renovation), 3 hall closets, toilet in basement (potential for powder room or full bath), insulated pipes, workbench and storage shelves in clean, very usable or finishable basement, one car attached garage and alarm system. It's a project, but will be well worth the effort once it's completed.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
