    What's special

    Wood burning fireplaceAnother wood burning fireplaceHalf bathLarge pantry and workroomWide side lawnDining roomThree large bedrooms
    Fabulous one of a kind home with great bones. Incredible basement with Acme-built custom large wet bar with separate refrigerator and fireplace. Second floor suite with three rooms, full bath, file room and very large solarium. This one owner home was built to spec by its owner. Over-sized lot backs onto Field recreational center and Mann elementary school. This would be a $1,800,000 home if rehabbed. Substantial work needed to make it currently live-in. First floor has large living room, dining room, kitchen, three large bedrooms, 2.1 baths and a wood burning fireplace. Finished basement has large bar, another wood burning fireplace, a second rec room for ping pong or pool table, large pantry and workroom, half bath, large closets, new copper water line, furnace, a/c, and totally separate laundry area with concrete double slop sink! The eight zoned sprinkler system has all controls in the basement as well. The wide side lawn as well as the backyard were used as two small wiffle ball fields! Two games going on simultaneously for your largest teen parties. Driveway used as a basketball court!!
    What the owner loves about this home
    There are six rooms on first floor and three rooms on second, including another bedroom. Total rooms are 9.
