What's special

BRICK COLONIAL ON DETROIT'S EAST SIDE! This 2-bedroom, 1.5 bath home is a great opportunity for a first-time homebuyer or investor. Features a fireplace in the living room, a Bonus room on the first floor that the previous owners used as a third bedroom, a partially finished basement, and a 1.5-car detached garage. The basement half bath already has a shower drain in place, making it easy to convert into a second full bathroom. Plenty of potential to make this home your own or add to your investment portfolio. BATVAI.
