Description

The home features solid construction, generous room sizes, and a functional layout ready for your personal vision and updates. This home is also equipped with a radon mitigation system. Boiler heating system was installed in 2021. Central air was installed in 2015. A standout feature of this property is the impressive two-story (with a basement) woodworking studio - perfect for hobbyists, artists, crafters, entrepreneurs, or maybe even a "tiny house", for those seeking additional creative space. With its size and structure, it also presents unique opportunities. The home is being sold as-is and may require updating, making it ideal for buyers looking to build equity while customizing to their taste. Investors welcome! Motivated seller. All roofs have had complete tear offs and replaced in 2022. Conveniently located near parks, shopping, and local amenities, this property combines location, craftsmanship, and untapped potential.
