Situated on a corner lot is where you will find this comfortable three bedroom vinyl sided home in need of a little tender loving care! The interior boasts a generously sized front facing living room with hardwood flooring, eat-in kitchen (has been gutted), three comfortably sized bedrooms, and a full hall bath with a conveniently situated hall vanity. Property also features a partial basement, rear patio area, 2+ car detached garage with an attached storage/work room area, and a rear storage shed. Currently there is NO water heater or toilet -- living room electrical needs to be finished. Complete these items along with some drywall repairs, trim work, flooring, and a few other cosmetic items and you (and yours) will have a choice place to call home for years to come! ** Cash or conventional financing only, please. **
