Key Facts
Description
This central location is near downtown and gives access to anywhere you need to be. The corner lot property has a 2 bedroom/1 bath, Bungalow-style home that recently received complete updates. Major components were upgraded: roof, siding, crawl space waterproofed, electrical, plumbing and new furnace. New flooring was installed throughout most of the home and a new accessible ramp was installed to the front porch. The room sizes are impressive and it feels new inside. This is move-in ready for sure with furnishings and some basic necessities included in the price. Two driveways provide access into the property with a carport at the front access and a storage shed at the back driveway. Brand new carpet in second bedroom in May 2026.
