Location is always key, and this single home is in Kenhorst Borough, in the Gov. Mifflin School District, and is a block away from a terrific playground and ballfield. If you have been hoping for an affordable property like this, this is the one! This home needs plenty of TLC and some repair work but is priced accordingly. The owner spent time on the front porch, large enough to hold some comfy chairs and welcome you to settle in and relax a bit. This home is all on one floor, the living room/dining room combination is long and easily separates the two rooms with great functionality, the kitchen, though small, does serve as an eat-in kitchen, the main bedroom is surprisingly large, and the bathroom is between the two bedrooms. Exiting through a small mud room off the kitchen, you find yourself on a huge deck, which is in need of re-decking, but is probably the most delightful surprise of the entire property. Heading down to the lower level, there is a finished portion of the property with a room that could be a gym, an office, a family room, whatever the buyer could envision. The other half of the lower level is a true basement, with a workshop area, laundry area, the normal mechanicals, and access to the rear yard which is large and slightly sloping. This property is ideal for the buyer who can manage its dated look or update it to suit them and has been looking for a detached, affordable property with super low taxes. It may also be a great property for an investor who is hoping to find the perfect property to fix up and rent. Easy to call home or easy to rent; it is the location that makes it so versatile.
