Situated on three spacious city lots, this property is a true contractor special. The home is in need of a complete renovation and is being sold AS IS, offering a blank slate for your vision. The main level features a large living room and dining room, main floor bedroom, plus a sizable family room addition at the back of the house that also leads to a generous back deck. Upstairs you'll find a bedroom and an oversized sitting area with generous wall to wall closet space--this area could be reimagined into an additional bedroom. While the bathroom is currently non-functional, the home's layout provides plenty of potential for someone ready to take on a full remodel. An older 2-3 car detached garage with a carport and back storage area with plenty of space for tools or a workshop. The 3 city lots offer so much potential for expansion, additional structures, gardening or simply enjoying a wide, open yard.
