Handy Man Special!!!! This diamond in the rough will be a gem after you update this "AS IS" home! Extensive rehabbing needed from the exterior siding, removal of old deck, older bathroom, paint and attention needed throughout interior of home. After restoring home, it will be among homes in a more profitable price bracket. On the positive, this home has a generous 2 1/2 car garage that is in great shape. The kitchen also features stainless appliances and most of the flooring is decent. Washer & dryer will stay. The ranch features an addition, so the sq footage is around 1425....a huge family room with separate heat. It has central air (front of home and bedrooms) and window ac. New electric box added in 2025. The home features 3 bedrooms, 1 bath and no bsmt...on a slab. Outside, on south side of home, the owner made a black curb system to divert water away from home if there is heavy rain. It has an extra-long driveway for extra parking. The home has a great location....walk to downtown, park and the high school. If you have vision of what this vintage house could be, then this house is for you! Conventional and cash buyers only. Will be sold "AS IS." 2012-furnace and hot water heater. Cen air approx between 2010-2014.
