One floor living on a spacious .6 acre lot. This home needs some TLC, but for the right buyer it could be a great opportunity. In the past few years the electrical, plumbing and the heating/central air systems have all been updated. Cosmetic changes (flooring, paint, lighting, etc...) are the majority of what's needed to make this great little house a home. Outside there is a nice covered front porch to relax on with family and friends. The property is very deep and offers a great rear yard lined by woods/trees. Parking is a breeze with a large 4+ car driveway and a detached 1 car garage.
