This all brick cape cod perched almost at the top of Fountain Hill has been maintained by the same family for 61 years. There is lots of opportunity here to build some equity and make this your own. To satisfy the Fountain Hill requirements the seller has just relined the sewer lateral in May 2024. The first floor offers a living room and kitchen as well as two flex rooms. They could both make great bedrooms, a dining room or office. There is also a full bath on the first level giving opportunity for one floor living. Upstairs you will find another full bath as well as two more generously sized bedrooms with large closets. More opportunity lies in the basement, Half of the basement was a finished area with lots of potential for added living space. Welcome to life on The Hill!
