    Home is being sold AS-IS / WHERE-IS to settle an Estate. This spacious 4Br/2.5Ba brick-exterior home is in need of interior cosmetic updating. Updated HVAC (2016 sticker on unit). Roof sometime after 2015. The heirs are not sure about the age of the roof. They recall it being done around 2015 or later. This is not a stated fact. This is what the heirs told us based on what they can recall. This great home is priced to sell fast in a community with home values reaching spanning the $600-700k ranges! Don't miss your opportunity to get into this neighborhood at such a great price & then take your time planning out all of your cosmetic improvements to make it your own! The almost 1/2 acre lot is situated at the back of a cul-de-sac street so there's minimal through traffic to be expected and the double driveway w/ 2 car garage allows for loads of off street parking especially when entertaining!
