    What's special

    This cute 3-bedroom home is ready for your personal touches! Don't let the affordable price fool you-situated on a nice corner lot, this property has so much to offer. The rounded front door highlights the classic 1940s character, while the living room features original hardwood floors and an arched entryway into the informal dining room. Large windows in both rooms allow plenty of natural light to flow through the space. The galley kitchen makes cooking convenient, and the two main-floor bedrooms are a comfortable size. One bedroom includes a washer and dryer hookup for easy, main-level laundry. The upstairs bedroom is spacious and includes a bonus room perfect for storage or a small office. A large screened-in sunroom adds valuable living space for most of the year and leads directly to the covered patio-ready for springtime enjoyment. The detached 2-car garage provides covered parking and extra space for tools, lawn equipment, or hobbies. A partial basement offers even more storage options. With a metal-roofed garage, vinyl siding, central heat and air, and a great corner lot, this 3-bedroom home delivers tremendous value. Potential buyers are encouraged to ask about financing options and available grants they may qualify for.
